Hi, first of all thanks fo your hard work so far on this project!

I would like to create an Apple FindMy to Google location sharing bridge and I'm wondering if, using this project, could be possible to inject a position to the Google server?

Thanks

Hi, thanks for your kind words. Using this project definitely not and I would guess using this api either. You would probably need to emulate an Android device and figure out how it sends it's location. This library uses the API on the other end, after a device has reported it's location. I hope this makes sense.

yes it makes sense and you give me an idea indeed with the android emulator. i can run an android emulator on my server and updating the current fake location from the one received from icloud. Let's see how it goes Thanks!
