GPSTest is the leading open-source Android application for testing GNSS/GPS receivers. It displays real-time satellite information for GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, NavIC, and SBAS systems, including dual-frequency support.
Use cases
- check which GPS satellites my Android phone can see
- test dual-frequency GNSS support on a device
- diagnose weak GPS signal or poor location accuracy
- compare Galileo vs GPS reception
- view SBAS augmentation status like WAAS and EGNOS
- verify BeiDou and NavIC satellite visibility
- troubleshoot location issues on Android
When to choose
- you need to inspect raw GNSS satellite data on Android
- you want an open-source, ad-free GPS diagnostic tool
- you're testing dual-frequency or multi-constellation GNSS hardware
- you're a developer validating location behavior on Android devices
When to avoid
- you need GPS testing on iOS or desktop platforms
- you want turn-by-turn navigation rather than diagnostics
- you need to spoof or mock GPS locations
