Keeps failing to mock location after 2,3 Days, although doesn't stop running in the app, but when u check ur location from Google map app, your original location would be coming, you have to restart fake gps app to start mock location

I would've given 5 stars instead of 4 if it ran all day without randomly shutting itself off. I don't like that I have to check a lot to make sure it's still running. Other than that it works exactly as it should. Just make sure to go to settings and update the settings to more appropriate ones. Example: interval check update (don't know exactly the name of the setting off top of my head ATM but that's what it is) in milliseconds is 2500 default.set that to 100. lookup up recommended settings
