@Yrlish@mastodon.nu Mock Location via developer options is a standard Android feature but we're developing per-app Location Scopes as a better alternative. It will be able to spoof a different location on a per-app basis. We can also make our own API for detecting it's active to avoid apps banning Mock Location banning using it while also avoiding apps banning GrapheneOS as a whole for it since they can use the API for detecting it's active. That will maximize compatibility.

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social thanks, it was this per app location scope I was looking for. So you have any progress updates on this features? Are we talking weeks, months or years away? I think I heard about the plans of this in the Discord server over a year ago. Not sure.

Can there be an option to show high resolution location (GPS) is available but pretend no position is available as if the phone is in a basement or a metal building? Does this require providing a reasonable "last fix" location, or some other complication?

Won't this just incentivise more apps to adopt play integrity API?
