## Description

Take Me There lets you set an alternative GPS location on your Android device using the mock location API built into Android itself. No root required.<br><br>Pick a spot on the map, or search for any place by name, and your device reports that position to apps that request location.<br><br>WHAT IT&#39;S FOR<br><br>- Testing location-aware apps you&#39;re building, without leaving your desk<br>- Checking how a service behaves in a different city or country<br>- Previewing an area before you travel<br>- Keeping your real position private in apps that don&#39;t need it<br><br>HOW IT WORKS<br><br>Take Me There uses Android&#39;s official test location provider. Because this is a developer feature, you need to enable it once:<br><br>1. Go to Settings → About Phone and tap Build Number seven times<br>2. Open Settings → Developer Options<br>3. Find &quot;Select mock location app&quot; and choose Take Me There<br>4. Return to the app, pick a location, and tap Set Location<br><br>The app includes a setup guide with shortcut buttons that take you straight to the right settings screens.<br><br>FEATURES<br><br>- Full-screen map — tap anywhere to choose a position<br>- Place search powered by Google Places<br>- Save locations as favourites, and rename them whenever you like<br>- Draw a route on the map and travel along it at a speed you choose<br>- Save your routes and load them back later<br>- Set how long a session runs, or leave it running until you stop it<br>- Add a small random drift so the position moves like a real GPS fix<br>- Dark mode, following your system or set to light or dark<br>- Runs as a foreground service with a clear, always-visible notification<br>- Stop at any time from the app or the notification<br>- Available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Catalan<br><br>FREE AND PRO<br><br>The free version is fully functional, with two limits:<br><br>- Location sessions end automatically after 15 minutes<br>- You can save one favourite location<br><br>Take Me There Pro removes both limits and adds routes, session timers and position drift. It&#39;s a one-time purchase, not a subscription.<br><br>PRIVACY<br><br>Take Me There collects nothing. There are no accounts, no analytics and no advertising. Your location never leaves your device, and saved favourites and routes are stored locally and deleted when you uninstall.<br><br>REQUIREMENTS<br><br>- Android 8.0 or later<br>- Developer Options enabled (the app guides you through it)<br><br>NOTE<br><br>Some apps detect and decline to run when a mock location is active. This is a decision made by those apps and is not something Take Me There can change.
