Z Locator - Fake GPS Location is an Android location simulator for users who want to control mock GPS activity and review past travel data from the same app. It supports live location simulation and historical journey visualization, making it relevant to developers, travelers, and users who regularly work with simulated locations.

Mock GPS tools and security

Z Locator lets users select a simulated GPS position and move across the map with a floating on-screen joystick. Walking and driving speeds can be adjusted in kilometers per hour or miles per hour. Route Studio supports custom multi-point routes, distance and waypoint details, automated navigation, and GPX export, while saved locations make frequently used positions easier to access again.

Its privacy features include local processing of simulated locations and zero external data tracking. An optional fingerprint or PIN lock can restrict access to saved locations and routes, providing an additional security measure for users who keep location information stored within the app.

Google timeline journey visualization

Timeline Studio works with historical location data instead of live GPS simulation. Users can import raw Google Timeline JSON data and turn recorded travel history into animated journey videos that show movement across previously recorded locations. The videos can also include trip statistics, giving users a more visual way to review past journeys from compatible Timeline data.

A capable GPS simulation tool

Z Locator offers more control than a basic GPS location changer and provides enough functionality for users who expect to use mock locations regularly. The Android Developer Options requirement adds some initial setup, but users who are comfortable configuring mock locations should find the app well suited to ongoing use.
