Most GIS applications will gracefully handle the Bluetooth connection to the RTK device and provide an NTRIP Client for getting the RTCM corrections so this section can be skipped. If, in the rare case, a GIS app does not allow NTRIP corrections, Mock Locations can be enabled under Android. Then a data provide like Lefebure or GNSS Master can be used to act as a middle-man.

Field Maps will use the device's internal location as its default location provider. With GNSS Master or Lefebure providing the connection and corrections to the RTK device, and a mock location to the phone, Field Maps will have a super precise GNSS location and data collection can begin.

ArcGIS QuickCapture[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.esri.arcgisquickcapture&hl=en_US] by Esri is a popular GIS app. Unfortunately it does not allow Bluetooth connections to 3rd party RTK devices.

[GNSS Master](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gnssmaster&hl=en_US) is a great utility when a given GIS app does not have an NTRIP Client. GNSS Master connects to a RTK device over Bluetooth (or Bluetooth BLE) as well as any correction source (NTRIP, PointPerfect, even USB Serial), and then acts as the phone's location using Mock Location.

This is one of the powerful features of GNSS Master - multiple connections can be entered. This is helpful if you switch between locations or NTRIP Casters and your GIS software only allows entry of a single NTRIP source. GNSS Master supports corrections from NTRIP Casters but also PointPerfect and a direct serial connection to a GNSS receiver. This can be really helpful in advanced setups.
