Vytal is a powerful Chrome extension that lets you effortlessly spoof your browser's time zone, geolocation, locale, and user agent. Unlike typical spoofing tools, Vytal employs the chrome.debugger API, making the spoofing effective across frames, web workers, and even during initial page loads — all while remaining undetectable. Ideal for testing websites, bypassing regional restrictions, or enhancing online privacy, it perfectly complements VPNs by syncing your browser's location data with your VPN's IP address.

The extension is free, requires no signup, and respects your privacy by collecting no data. It also works compatibly alongside popular security and privacy extensions such as PrivacyBadger, uBlock Origin, and HTTPS Everywhere. For advanced users, Vytal provides seamless functionality without the limitations of script tag injections, making it a superior choice over similar tools like Location Guard or User-Agent Switchers.

User reviews

Users appreciate Vytal for effectively spoofing timezone, geolocation, and locale across multiple browsers, making it valuable for accessing restricted content. It is regarded as a useful and must-have tool. However, multiple reviewers express frustration with a persistent banner indicating the add-on is active, which is intrusive and cannot be easily dismissed. Users desire an option to hide this banner to improve the experience.

la App es excelente, pero es sumamente molesto que aparezca en todo momento un banner indicando que está siendo usada. Pasa en Edge, Chrome, Brave, Opera, que son los que he usado.
