Geolocation refers to a device's physical location. Geolocation testing is essential to ensuring that your app performs as intended for users wherever they are. There might even be scenarios where an application's functionality depends completely on geo-location. Your app may provide different services or content based on a user's location in the world.

Perfecto lets you simulate the physical location of the device running your app to a number of countries. Selecting an IP geolocation allows you to access the internet at the selected location. Your application's backend will see the session with an IP address from the selected location.

Important: Setting the IP geolocation might impact performance due to additional routing and network conditions at the target location.
