Sorry that the formatting is all screwed up ... I'm trying to fix it... but I can't find the original font & size (Verdana? 22?)

Thank you for your kind help - and for your clarifying questions.

It's definitely a setting inside the Lexa app.

But I don't know if it's a setting in the rest of the GPS spoofers...

Let me run a quick App Finder search for free ad-free GPS spoofers to test a few out to see if it's only in Lexa or if it's in most of them.

Separately, I'll test each of these free/ad-free mock-location apps & report back on that...

That's what I can't figure out.

One thing that is interesting is that I can spoof my location, to, oh, say, the middle of San Francisco - but my careless neighbors' Wi-Fi access points show I'm exactly where I really am (which is nowhere near San Francisco).

When I open Google Maps under that circumstance, the Google Maps app bounces around trying to figure out if I'm in the middle of San Francisco (which my GPS says I am) or if I'm where I really am.

After a few confused bounces, Google Maps puts me where I really am so it must take the precedence of the careless neighbors' Wi-Fi access points over the GPS.

Note it's only my careless neighbors who are giving my location away as my own access points aren't uploaded to Google - because not only do I have _nomap appended to the SSID (which does NOT prevent upload!) but I also have the broadcast beacon hidden (i.e., turned off) - which does prevent the upload.

[Privacy] Does Android upload your home AP SSID/BSSID/GPS/dBm if the home AP broadcast beacon is hidden?

What you really want the wi-fi spoofer to do, I guess, is pick a known "real" BSSID/GPS/dBm/SSID combination (which would be actual values already in the Google public BSSID/GPS/dBm/SSID databases) "near" to where the GPS is being spoofed - but that would be sophisticated - would it not?

I can't believe a free app is that sophisticated - but then what does it output if it doesn't do that?
