Select a point on the map, build a custom route, or control simulated movement in real time with a responsive GPS joystick.

Created for developers, QA testers, map demonstrations and anyone who needs to test location-based features on their own device. Use it as a location simulator to reproduce GPS scenarios without physically moving your test device.

Choose a Mock GPS Location

• Search or move the map to select a coordinate
• Start a fixed-location simulation in a few taps
• Jump back to your real current location when needed
• Save frequently used places as favourites

Simulate GPS Routes

• Create manual routes with points on the map
• Generate road-based routes between selected locations
• Save routes and run them again later
• Pause, resume or stop a user-started simulation
• Choose walking, cycling or driving movement modes

Move with the GPS Joystick

• Control simulated movement in real time
• Move smoothly in every direction, including diagonally
• Adjust speed and movement behaviour
• Use the optional floating joystick over other apps
• Return to the app without ending your active session

Advanced Movement Controls

Fine-tune speed, acceleration, deceleration, direction locking and stopping behaviour for more precise and repeatable test scenarios.

Built for Repeatable Location Testing

GPS Emulator combines fixed mock locations, route simulation, saved routes, favourite places and joystick control in one location-testing toolkit. Use it to test maps, geofencing, delivery flows, travel features and other location-aware app experiences.

Quick Setup

1. Enable Developer options in Android settings.
2. Open "Select mock location app".
3. Choose GPS Emulator.
4. Return to GPS Emulator, select a location, route or joystick session, then start the simulation.

Menu names may vary by Android version and device manufacturer. The floating joystick requires "Display over other apps" permission.

Responsible Use

GPS Emulator is intended for software development, quality assurance, demonstrations and other lawful testing. Use it only on devices, accounts and apps you own or are authorised to test. Follow local laws and the terms of any third-party service. Compatibility with every location-based app is not guaranteed. ## Rankings - #2,282,270 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_AD_ID` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_ATTRIBUTION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_TOPICS` - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.android.vending.BILLING` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID` - `com.gpstools.app.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [GeoSim: Fake GPS & Route Mock](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kairosvector.geosim) — 2,052 users - [GPS Emulator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fake.gps.location.changer.spoof.imockgo) — 240,584 users, 4.29 / 5 - [Fake GPS - Mock Location](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.myvehicleinfo.fakegps) — 6,185 users - [GPS Test Tool: GPS Emulator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.prajapatigroup.gpsemulator) — 197 users - [GPS Simulator — Mock Location](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.chudaobao.gpssim) — 137 users - [Fake GPS Joystick & Routes](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kinderia.fakeGps) — 85 users - [GPS Emulator Pro](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.gpsemulator.gps_emulator) — 95 users - [MockGPS Pro: Route & Joystick](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.n2q.mockgps) — 14,056 users - [GPS Simulator: Fake GPS & Mock](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sachin.gpssimulatorpro) — 110 users - [GeoStick: Mock GPS Joystick](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.woohey.geostick) — 22 users - [Easy GPS Mock : Fake GPS](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.easytoolsstudio.easygpsmock) — 21,210 users - [GPS Emulator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.rosteam.gpsemulator) — 14,785,548 users, 4.76 / 5 --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.gpstools.app)
