Mock Location with Windscribe VPN

mrtoo

I used to be able to spoof my location with Windscribe VPN. All I needed to do was authorize Windscribe with mock location and enable spoof gps on windscribe. Now I am having trouble with Windscribe recognizing it is authorized mock locations. Is this being prevented by GOS or is this a Windscibe issue?

Just a bump. Can anyone confirm if GOS has done anything to intentionally disable GPS spoofing. I am stumped why I can no longer enable GPS spoofing. It once worked with same phone and OS.

mrtoo Not intentionally as far as I'm aware. It is possible that it simply doesn't work anymore, because as far as I can tell that's a developer option, right?

Those aren't meant to be used in production, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's broken in AOSP for Android 13 or something.

mrtoo have you been able to figure out a solution? Im having the same issue. I have my Pixel 6 Pro in developer mode with "Fake Traveller" App given "mock location" permission, and doesn't seem to work when I test anywhere. I've tried a few other GPS Spoofing apps and none work.

davidjreimer No. Even sending debug logs to Windscribe resulted in nothing.
