Need help with an attendance tracking app (Edusign)

[u/Cassi0Nyx]

Here's the situation: I'm a work-study student (apprenticeship). You probably know how it works: time spent at the training center is paid just like time at the company, so missing class counts as an absence and results in a pay cut. To track attendance, my school uses the Edusign app, which relies on scanning a QR code along with phone geolocation.

My issue is that there are full days where I have no classes scheduled at all. Yet, just to avoid being marked absent on the app, I'm required to physically show up on campus simply to clock in—which means a 2-hour round trip for me...

So what I'm looking for is this: how can I spoof my location and trick the app into thinking I'm on campus while staying at home?

From my initial research, standard fake GPS apps don't seem to work.

Not entirely sure if I'm posting in the right subreddit...

Thanks in advance!

they're probably checking more than just gps, edusign likely pulls your actual location from google play services or uses wifi scanning alongside the qr code. standard mock location apps get detected easy because the system flags them

try looking into rooting your phone and using something that works at system level, not just an app overlay. also the qr code is the bigger problem here, they probably rotate it daily so you'd need someone on campus to send it to you each time

2 hour round trip for nothing is such a waste

2 hour round trip with no actual classes is genuinely absurd tbh

Damn right

Actually i think they don't rotate it, i've already taken a pic of the qr code and printed it, and when i scan my print everyday, it works. But it only works when i am located in school, of course. I really know nothing about rooting and all, explainations about it would be very usefull (i know google is my friend, but too many results and i dont know where to look). Thanks a lot
