## Description

Location Changer - Fake GPS lets you change your device's GPS location to any spot on Earth with a user-friendly map interface and joystick control. Protect your privacy by preventing apps and websites from tracking your real location, and test location-based apps effortlessly. Features include setting multiple pins on the map with customizable intervals, driving mode to simulate movement between locations based on speed, and detailed location status info.

The app works even after rebooting and includes easy controls like long-press to set pins and a stop button in notifications to disable spoofing. Note that it uses Android's Mock locations feature and does not change your IP address, so some apps might detect fake locations. Ideal for developers, testers, privacy-conscious users, and enthusiasts wanting to emulate GPS locations with precision and ease.
