Floating mock-location joystick for emulator testing
F-Droid repository metadata
GeoJoystick is an open-source Android mock-location joystick for emulator and developer testing.
It uses Android's standard mock-location provider flow and provides a small floating overlay for moving a mock location without repeatedly switching back to the main app. It does not try to hide or bypass Android mock-location status.
Features include manual coordinate entry, an OpenStreetMap-based picker, map-link coordinate import, compact and expanded overlay modes, favorite locations, speed presets, custom speed, light and dark themes, and English/German language support.
GeoJoystick has no ads, accounts, subscriptions, analytics, billing, or built-in updater.

How to install
Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
