How to change web browser location/GPS signal

Some streaming services require enabling location access in the browser to access certain content. When they do they may block access based on the GPS signal they get.


You can easily get around this by spoofing the location signal sent by the browser. We'll use Hulu Live TV as an example but this will work for any service that uses browser location for any reason.

The guide will follow instructions for Chrome but this can be done on any Chromium based browser like Brave, Opera, etc.

Step 1:

Before allowing browser location access:

Browser Settings (three-dots/hamburger menu) > More tools > Developer tools > Select Console tab > Console Settings (three-dot/hamburger menu) > Sensors > Set Geolocation to Other...

Step 2:

Set desired coordinates for Geolocation

We use these for our example:

Latitude: 40.753977

Longitude: -111.88172

Timezone ID: MST

Step 3:

Now you can allow location access on the web page when prompted and continue as usual.
