What Gmocker does with your phone's GPS
Gmocker is a Tools app from VidaTech on Google Play. It replaces the GPS position your phone reports with a location you pick, so apps that read location see the chosen point instead of where the phone actually is.
On the listing it has more than 1,000,000 installs and a 4.52 rating from 48,226 ratings. The developer names three groups of users: people who want to keep their real position from being tracked, people who post photos with a simulated location, and software developers testing apps against different locations.
Choosing a location on the map
You set the location on a map. The listing says you double-tap or swipe to zoom in on the place you want, then tap Change Location and confirm with Start. The location editor applies the new position to the phone.
A joystick mode, which the listing marks as a new feature, lets you move the simulated position from its current point instead of jumping to a new spot. The developer describes it as a way to walk or drive the position around.
Keeping the spoofed location running
Opening the mock location app and tapping GO starts the tool. The listing asks you to allow background operation and turn off battery optimization for Gmocker, which the developer says keeps the GPS state active while it runs.
When you finish, the listing says you can close the app to stop it. Because the tool is controlled from one screen, switching the reported location means opening the app again, choosing a new point and starting.
Privacy, social photos and app testing
For privacy, the developer presents the app as a way to hide your actual GPS location from people and services that track it. For social media, the listing suggests posting pictures tagged with a simulated location for fun with friends.
Developers can use the same map and joystick controls to test how their software behaves at different locations without travelling. The developer lists this as the intended use for software engineers.
