Allow Mock Locations???

[chadrob30]

I have enabled Developer Options, etc etc...the only option I have for mock locations is to choose an app. That app is Fly GPS. When I go to use Fly GPS it says to Enable Mock Locations, but there is no option to do this. Anyone have a solution? And no, I do not play Pokemon Go.

I am hoping for an answer to this as well. I use Location Spoofer, and get the same results.

I use Fake GPS by Lexa and it works fine

I think some of these apps may be having issues because they may not be updated for Android 7.0 Nougat.

Prior to 7.0, Mock Locations had a toggle to be turned on and off.
It doesn't look like 7.0 offers this option. However, the above app should work for your purposes.

In the past, when I was I was rooted, I would actually convert the app to a SYSTEM app, so that Mock Locations setting could remain OFF.

This allowed me to bypass certain limitations that would check to see if Mock Locations was turned on.

I don't play Pokemon Go either, but I like watching MLB games, and sometimes blackout restrictions can be an issue. Good Luck.

Hello everyone, I have found one that works on my Pixel. Fake GPS by AnDev is working on my Pixel, I hope it works on yours as well.

how did you get that app to work on your pixel? my asus flip doesn't have an option to enable mock locations or choose a mock location app under developer options.

This may be a dumb question, but what do you use a GPS tracker for.

Honestly, I just kept trying GPS spoofers until one worked. Without the option in dev options, or being prompted to choose which app to use for spoofing I am not sure how to make it work. I am also not familiar with Asus devices or their software setup. I will keep my eyes open for a solution.

No dumb questions. While may use them(spoofers) for nefarious reasons. I use one because for some reason the area I travel to never accurately shows on my GPS, I like "checking in" and the like, so I use mine to make sure I am shown at an accurate location. However with my Pixel I am using it less than my old S3. Trackers on the other hand are great for logging mileage for work.
