Overview

Cloaq is a browser extension that spoofs your time zone, geolocation, and locale to any location you choose. It’s useful for testing websites in different regions, bypassing geo-restrictions, or matching your location data to your VPN IP address.

Cloaq is free, open source, and collects no user data.

ℹ️ How Cloaq Works

Cloaq uses the chrome.debugger API to change data directly at the browser level, making it effective across all frames and web workers, unlike other extensions that rely on less reliable script injections. This approach ensures data modifications are undetectable and work consistently, even during the initial page load.

ℹ️ IP Address

Cloaq does not change your IP address. To change your IP address, you will need a VPN or proxy.

ℹ️ Hide Debugging Notification Bar

While the extension is on, a notification bar becomes visible. Hiding the bar can be done by using the --silent-debugger-extension-api flag.
