AI 产品解读Google Search location spoofing extension that modifies HTTP request headers to make Google believe the user is searching from a different geographic location
Users cannot easily view Google Search results localized to a different city, country, or region from their actual physical location. Google personalizes search results based on detected location via x-geo headers and accept-language settings.
User opens the popup, searches for a place using the autocomplete (powered by Google Maps or Photon geocoding), selects the desired location, optionally adjusts language and country parameters, then toggles the 'enabled' switch. The extension then modifies x-geo and accept-language request headers on all Google.com requests via declarativeNetRequest session rules, making Google serve results as if the user were in the selected location. Users can save favorite locations and quickly switch via context menu.

付费分析未识别到付费功能
No paid features, subscription gates, upgrade prompts, or payment-related code found anywhere in the extension. All keyword matches for 'pro', 'license' are from bundled third-party libraries (Bootstrap, jQuery, Handlebars license headers). No references to premium, subscribe, upgrade, payment, price, buy, purchase, or donate in any source file. The extension provides all its functionality (location spoofing, favorites, context menu, region selection) without any gating.

- The extension requires no login or account creation. It uses chrome.storage.sync to persist settings locally in the browser profile. All keyword matches for 'auth', 'session', and 'token' are false positives from third-party libraries (Bootstrap license comments), Chrome extension API calls (updateSessionRules), and text tokenization libraries (Bloodhound tokenizers). The 'authuser=0' in Google URLs is a standard query parameter, not an authentication requirement.
Developers added an option to use Google Maps locations. If you can't find the location you want, change the extension setting to the Google Autocomplete endpoint. Amazing extension. I am using it to check whether my customers' Google Ads campaigns show up in search results for a specific location.
Used to work great but not working anymore
Extension still not working. Hopefully your team checks reviews consistently. I did uninstall and reinstall to no avail. I hope y'all are able to fix this because I use it just about every day!
extension is not wroking proper please fixe this isse soon as possibel
Like another comment said - along the lines of "I didnt know how much I used it until it was gone" -- ie, we take it for granted. I love this extension, and I'm pretty sure it's the one I use the most. I was so sad to see it was gone - and I'm so happy to see it was just an update. Please share if you have a Donate page, I'd love to do it
