Hi, right as balloni wrote. This issue is already fixed in the Beta version. I wanted to publish a new version this week but because of some technical problems with filesystem permission, it will have most probably be two weeks delay.

On EXT SD even x-plore cannot write; on INT SD it can. You have to give permission - once.

Alternatively you can USB connect to a PC - all files accessible.

Yes, you indeed missed something

What's the issue with the UI?
Two panes you can switch by swipe, select a file or folder and do something with it.
You can play with it with some copied data, so nothing breaks and you learn.
Then enjoy the power.
I agree that should not be needed for normal app users. But the transition to cope with those new Android 11 limitations is painful. For the creators as well as for the users with the fallout of it.
Once Menion properly deals with /Android/media folders on that upper level, thing will become much easier, also in the interaction between Apps that need the maps and SRTM mass data, and should not be forced to duplicate it.

Hi 
Trying Locus and some settings on my (little...) Jelly Pro, I loosed the menu button and the lower bar...
So, no access to the settings again... How to recover?

You are here in the web planner. The best thing to do is to contact the helpdesk.

@CabrioTourer42
you were too fast. The app is available on Google Play usually after 1-2 hours after I upload it. Sometimes even later ...

@sbojuju
it is not needed to use ApkPure. Usually, I upload the latest version to our Google Drive: http://bit.ly/lmVersions

@d1039532
are you sure that your recording profile has disabled "auto-save"?

@fresichneider
for my own surprise, I see probably both of your stucks. One clearly happened in the "Track editor" screen, the second is too generic. Anyway, in both cases, the app probably did too much work. Why this? Aren't you editing track "Around the world in 40 days"? 

[new versions 3.52.1/4.1.1just published]

And because of the new interesting crash that appears with a new version for a few users, new versions 3.52.1/4.1.1just published.

...or calculate a round trip with all the already defined points, if possible...?

@sbouju - the service is provided online by 3rd party GrafHopper, so not within control of Locus team. It only works with zero or one defined point; not more... It needs an improved/ more helpful error message.

If I start to record an activity from the Locus Map module of my watch only (and Locus Map app not launched on the smartphone),  is it a normal behaviour to see this recording stopped when the smartphone shut down (for example if it has no more power...) ?

If there is recording activity using Garmin GPS and watch looses connection with smartphone (for example when battery dies), application will show huge red alert but continue to record on background. When leaving the app (alert), the app will provide selection whether you want to save or discart such recording.

This is of course not ideal, I hope to implement this better so the app will remain usable even when phone is not accessible, but right now, there are other priorities to take care off.

Looking at my LocusMap web (sync being done) and going in "PLANNER"/"MY LIBRARY", I can find all my tracks OK, but I have no access to my waypoints...
Normal?

I had the same observation and question and Menion explained that this will come in a future release.

Even easier should be to draw a circle around your home with menu > more > geocaching tools > draw circle

Hi, that is the limitation of Garmin Connect IQ platform. The map will never be as fast as on Android Wear.

I have another question: on a fenix 6 (Connect IQ compatible) but which is not "Pro" or "X" (without any Garmin original cartography), can the watch show my smartphone LoMaps current map on its screen, as can do my Sony SmartWatch 3 ?

Hi, I missed your question, sorry. Yes, now you can even with natively non-map garmin models (except the oldest one)!   

EDIT: But one thing to add here: Fenix 6 PRO and other Garmin music or map models can utilise more memory for the app which Locus uses for better map caching when changing the screens and ability to activate enhanced map colors mode. Nothing fancy, but just want to point out, that although both F6 and F6 PRO can render maps via Locus, F6 PRO can do it a LITTLE bit better. Sorry to complicate your decisions a little.

Hello

Datafields are not yet customisable but it is of course one of the feature which we want to bring in some future versions.
Thank you for the feedback! The app must supports lots of screen sizes and layout configurations, so its not easy to fine tunes fonts/pixels on all models. We will try to improve it in the future.

I uninstalled and reinstalled BRouter for the latest 1.5.5 version, and used the new default location of /Android/data/btools.routingapp/files/brouter for profiles and segments. I then went into Settings / Navigation in Locus, changed navigation data source to BRouter, tapped on the three line menu at the right-hand side of the navigation data source option, tapped on the wrench icon, and activated Advanced settings. If you do that you will then find that you can tap on the "ROUTING PROFILE" dropdown arrow, and the BRouter profiles you have in /Android/data/btools.routingapp/files/brouter/profiles2 will appear in the list below the Locus profiles and can be selected.
