Does geolocation need to be spoofed if I'm on a VPN? Is't geolocation detected using IP address?

- Shugarl 4y agoWell Google Map still knows where I am when my VPN is activated. So I'd say yes, unless VPNs on mobile are less reliable than on PC
- aaronmdjones 4y agoGoogle Maps still knows where you are on your mobile because it can still detect nearby WiFi networks and use the GNSS receiver. You would need to remove these permissions, and then it wouldn't work at all.
- dotancohen 4y agoModern browsers provide a location API, independent of one's IP address.
