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.

Before proceeding, it is recommended to have the mock location provider app already installed. So if you haven't already, consider installing Lefebure, GNSS Master, etc.

To enable **Mock Locations**, *Developer Mode* in Android must be enabled. It is best to google the [most recent procedure for this](https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+allow+mock+location+on+android) but the following procedure should work:
4) Scroll all the way to the bottom of a very long list of developer options.

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. To enable a connection to a SparkFun RTK device, a [mock location](connecting_bluetooth.md/#enable-mock-location) and an intermediary app such as [GNSS Master](gis_software_android.md/#gnss-master) or [Lefebure](gis_software_android.md/#lefebure) is needed.

From the GNSS Master main screen, select **GNSS Receiver Connection**.
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.
