GPS internal presentation

Whenever we send our Android / iOS applications to clients using GPS, we always receive incorrect GPS data (in enclosed spaces and in our applications to refuse network localization). Is there a quick way to “fudge” GPS data for our customer presentations?

Right now, we should always be ready to schedule meetings for another 30 minutes to explain the non-technical reasons why GPS does not work indoors (whereas the application will be used at 99.999% outdoors). In the end, we always find ourselves stupid.

Explain that GPS is not working inside, then do a demo outside

By the way, tell us about why GPS does not work inside.

Move all your location code to your own class. Return fixed / selected locations in demo mode.

I think it would be better to explain to your client that GPS does not work well inside. Honesty is much better than miss. In addition, it shows that you really know your stuff.

If you need to do this, install static vars. To do this, you, unfortunately, know that you have your chosen location.

Here is an article describing the use of Mock Locations in Android. In Settings-> Applications-> Development there is an option "Allow location layout" - http://techxplorer.com/2011/07/01/using-mock-locations-in-android/

You can simulate a location from Xcode. You can run the application on a device or simulator and simulate a location using Xcode Xcode-> Product-> Debug-> Simulate Location You can use several places already in Xcode or add custom locations or even load a GPX file
