Features & Capabilities

ActiveGPS - GPS booster is a simple and free Chrome extension designed to keep your device's GPS sensor active all the time, even when your apps are not in use. This ensures faster and more accurate GPS fixes for apps relying on location data, like navigation tools and sports trackers.

With ActiveGPS, you can choose between three modes - high, medium, and low - to balance performance and battery consumption according to your needs. It runs a foreground service to keep the GPS sensor active without requiring a wakelock, providing seamless and precise tracking without annoying ads.

Ideal for developers and everyday users, ActiveGPS reduces GPS cold start time and enhances location precision across all Android devices equipped with built-in, Bluetooth, or USB GPS sensors. Note that continuous GPS use can impact battery life, so adjust the settings thoughtfully. Experience reliable GPS performance with ActiveGPS - GPS booster!
