Location Studio(Mock Location)

Location Studio is a GPS tool for developers, testers, and power users who need precise control over location data on Android. Record real-world GPS traces, replay them as mock location for other apps to consume, plan routes on the map, and import or export GPX files — all in one place. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ GPS TRACE RECORDING ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Start a recording session and a foreground service continuously captures your location points into a GPX file. The notification keeps running in the background so you can lock your screen and walk, drive, or cycle normally. Each saved trace shows name, date, distance, duration, and point count. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ MOCK LOCATION REPLAY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Select any saved trace and replay it as a mock GPS location. The device appears to move along the recorded path — other apps, games, and services will see the spoofed position. Choose your replay speed or set a static mock pin anywhere on the map with a long press. Requires enabling "Select mock location app" in Android Developer Options. A built-in step-by-step guide walks you through the setup. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ROUTE PLANNING ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Tap waypoints on the map to build a route. Location Studio fetches a road-snapped route and draws it as a polyline with start, end, and via markers. Choose a travel mode to control replay speed: • Walk — 5 km/h • Cycle — 20 km/h • Drive — 60 km/h • Fly — 800 km/h Replay the route directly as mock location, launch it in your preferred navigation app, or save it as a trace for later use. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ GPX IMPORT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Import existing GPX files from your device using the system file picker and replay or visualize them alongside your recorded traces. (Premium) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ MAP VISUALIZATION ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ An interactive map displays your traces and routes as polylines with start/end markers. During replay, a follow-puck mode keeps the map centered on the moving location; an overview mode zooms to show the full path. A stats card shows distance, duration, and point count for the active trace or route. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FREE vs PREMIUM ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Free: • Up to 3 saved traces • 10 route calculations per day • Map and trace recording Premium (one-time purchase): • Unlimited saved traces • 100 route calculations per day • GPX import • No ads ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ USE CASES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Test location-aware apps without leaving your desk • Simulate a delivery route for QA testing • Record a hike or drive and replay it later • Spoof GPS for apps that require a specific location • Share GPX tracks with other mapping tools ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PERMISSIONS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Fine/coarse location — for recording and map positioning • Foreground service — for background recording and replay • Notifications — for recording and replay status (Android 13+) Note: Mock location replay requires the app to be designated as the mock location provider in Android Developer Options (Settings → Developer Options → Select mock location app).
