New — first release
Route Spoofer — drive the route without leaving your desk
An Android mock-GPS route player for testing location-based apps. It broadcasts a scripted, moving location to your whole device, so every app on the phone believes you are really out there.

🚗 Testing location apps used to require real movement
If your product depends on where the user is — a driver app, a navigation screen, a delivery or dispatch flow — testing it has traditionally meant physically going somewhere. Walking the block to watch a marker move. Driving the route again because you missed the moment the app misbehaved. It is slow, it cannot be repeated exactly, and it is impossible on a rainy Tuesday at 2am before a release.
🛰 Simulate the movement instead
Route Spoofer plays back a route you have drawn, feeding the position to the whole device rather than to a single app. The app under test does not know the difference — it just sees a device that is moving. The same route replays identically every time, which turns a location bug from something you have to chase into something you can reproduce on demand.
Built for QA engineers and developers
If you work on driver, navigation, delivery or dispatch products, this is the tool that removes the car from your test loop.
🧪 Test without going anywhere
Cover the whole journey — pickup, waiting, delivery, arrival — without leaving your desk.
🔁 Reproducible regressions
Save the route that broke it and replay exactly that, every build, until it is fixed.
🎬 Believable demos
Show the product doing its thing on a real device, on a route you control.
What it does
📍 GPS and movement, separate
Broadcasting a location and advancing along the route are two independent controls. Park the device somewhere and keep it there, or start moving whenever you are ready.
⏸ Stops, waits and GO
Any point can pause for a set time, or wait until you tap GO — so you can model the courier standing at the door while you check what the app does.
✏️ Build and edit live
Change the route while it is playing. No stopping, saving and starting over just to move one point.
🏎 Live speed, per segment
Speed up the boring parts, slow down where it matters, or set a different speed for one segment of the route.
💾 Saved routes
Keep your routes on the device, and export or import them as JSON to share a reproduction with the rest of the team.
🔎 Jump anywhere, and come back
Search for any place in the world, and come back later to the view you left.
Available in 8 languages: English, Russian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Chinese and Hindi.
⚙️ Under the hood
A Capacitor 7 web UI handles the map and route building, while a Kotlin foreground service owns playback timing — so the route keeps running properly while you are looking at the app you are testing.
Positions are injected into both the GPS and NETWORK mock providers, which is what makes the location system-wide rather than confined to one app. Routes are stored locally, and place search uses OpenStreetMap.
🚀 Four steps
- Enable Developer Options — tap Build number seven times in About Phone.
- Install Route Spoofer from Google Play.
- Select it as the mock location app in Developer Options.
- Grant Location and Notifications permissions, then turn GPS on.
📱 Android only
Route Spoofer is Android-only, and will stay that way: iOS has no public mock-location API, so this approach is not possible there.
