how geolocator.isMock() works?
1 project | /r/flutterhelp | 8 Dec 2023

and from that background I want to know how the isMock property works to ensure that no one can bypass that logic, but unfortunately i couldn't find the logic for IOS, but for Android I found that ismocked comes from the java android.location.Location package with location.isMock(); or location.isFromMockProvider();
