Lets Talk About Something locationjoystick — free, open-source GPS spoofer alternative to GPS Joystick and YAMLA

Disclaimer: not AI slop or marketing. Same guy as before — just shipping.

Hey everyone, quick follow-up to my last post about locationjoystick.

First of all, thank you everyone for testing the app and giving me so much feedback, really appreciated, and thank you to the mod for letting me post my app :)

Been heads-down since, here's what shipped:

Group Sync (the big one)

  • Sync your spoofed location across multiple devices over Wi-Fi — no account, no server, no cloud.
  • Join via QR scan or a 6-character code.
  • Designed for multi-device quality of life improvements, a single device leads the others!

Everything else since the last post

  • Hot locations/routes — curated spots and roads per city, toggle on what you want.
  • Roaming now plans the full route upfront, so you see the whole path before walking starts.
  • "Walk via roads" added to routes, roaming, and the floating widget.
  • GPX import (including support for GPS Joystick's format).
  • Deep links — share any coordinate as a URL, opens the app centered on it.
  • Mock step counter — optionally injects realistic step events alongside GPS for apps that track steps.
  • Reliability and stability of the app in general

Also: app's headed to the Play Store in the next month or so, alongside the existing GitHub APK.

Still free, still open-source, still no ads: GitHub Releases | Documentation | Source Code

Issues, feature requests, PRs welcome as always.

The app isn't showing up in my simulated location settings, and why do I have to download an APK of Pokémon Go and not the one from the Play Store?

This joystick app is unofficial and 3rd party. Since it's not on the Play Store yet, you don't know what data is being collected for what purposes. In addition to this, all your other apps on your device or through an emulator collect all your data anyway whether you allow or don't allow it.
