Lizard insurance app mandates you give location permission, refusing access to the rest of the app otherwise. I have 0 intention of giving them this but so far have failed to find a phone number to call them (their mobile website tells me to use the app).

Until I find a different company run by living, real people, my current intention is to use the app to manage my insurance in the meantime. I don’t want to give them my location, even if it’s only while using the app, so how do I get the app to think it has my location when it actually doesn’t?

inb4 just use a computer: nah. It’s about spite at this point.

    I don’t think OP is that stupid. I’d guess they’ll provide a reasonably close fake location, since their home address is almost certainly known to the insurer.

      At that point you might as well just give the real location data, just only when the app is in use

        Disagree, because maybe you don’t want the insurance company stalking you and having a stored location history? If anything, I personally would just stop driving at that point (indeed, my current car is almost certainly my last).
