I would rather have the ability give a custom location instead.

That'd certainly be a nice feature. I'd be happy to tell my phone the address of a well-known public building in my area and have all location-based queries orient from that.
1. Download a GPS spoofing app

2. Enable Developer options

3. Select mock location app

4. Spoof your location

Get banned on all location based AR games, of course.

Is this even still possible on current iOS/Android devices?

Somehow those apps never seem to work for me.
XPrivacyLua for Android supports this. (Requires root and Xposed framework, though.)
