Thanks for the new version.
But where has the track gallery gone?
Images are no longer displayed and the "show Media" option under Settings > Points and Tracks > Tracks no longer exists.
Backup is working again ! Thank you.
Backup improved and working.
Some progress on geotaggedmedia, but still, no hierarchy, so I cannot easily show (eye symbol) e.g. 50 folders out of the listed 200.
No more Track Gallery in V 4.31
I'm really surprised that no one but me misses the Track Gallery (photos visible at recorded tracks).
This was introduced with beta version 4.30.1.3 (see here (https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?msg=79224)), discussed in the forum and improved several times. I think all beta users liked the Track Gallery.
Now it has disappeared without comment in the current release version. Is there a reason for this? Will it come in one of the next versions? I have now reinstalled beta 4.30.1.8 because I had got used to the Track Gallery and would like to keep it. But of course this is not a permanent solution.
I would like to receive an explanation. Thank you.

@balloni55:
I had installed AFA version 4.31 and there was definitely no track gallery. At least not for me. I wrote about it right away. It wasn't mentioned in the list of news either.
After uninstalling and reinstalling the beta, it's back.
Does your video really show 4.31?
yes, V 4.31.0 + Auto
"+Auto" i see the first time ???
i usually install AFA version
The photos are stored under
Android/data/menion.android.locus/Locus/data/media/photo
I tried again and reinstalled V 4.31.0 + Auto (AFA). As feared, still no track gallery. >:(
No photos are displayed for the tracks. No matter which directory, not even the one you mentioned. That's strange, because it worked fine in the last betas. The geotagged photos are displayed correctly on the map. But not for the recorded tracks.
Is the "show Media" option displayed under Settings > Points and Tracks? It is no longer available for me either.
Now I'm going to go to the trouble of uninstalling the new version and reinstalling Beta 4.30.1.8.
It would be nice if Menion could comment on this. Perhaps it is due to my device and my Android version. However, this is unlikely, as it worked correctly with all betas since the introduction of the track gallery.
@GrafGeo,
I am facing the same issue.
Uninstalled, reinstalled did not change anything.
🤷🏼
I have now installed the new V 4.31.0 on my old Galaxy S7.
No track gallery here either. :(

Can confirm.
Hi guys,
new version 4.31.1 is just being published...
Few unfortunate changes that come...
1. gallery you miss > result of our internal discussions. Part of the team is worried, it will collide with the planned "Sync of attachments". So they should come, but later in a slightly different style.
2. new "Choose default action" in route planner profiles removed. Again, a lack of communication in the team and general worry about increasing complexity.
3. just removed Google Drive support ... completely. Google announced limitations of full access to the folder structure a long time ago. We missed this info, and since 1. 9. 2025 Locus Map seems to be blocked (if you are logged, it still works). Sorry. Solution exists only partially and is really complicated.
4. back press in the "Other POIs" search reverted. It was not possible to choose an active database file. We have to do it a little differently.
Hmm, not good news.
1. when do you estimate that "Sync of attachments" will come and then hopefully the Track Gallery again?
2. not a good idea to remove the setting. Can't you at least put it in the Expert Settings? I definitely want to be able to select "Continue with" as the default and not always have to click twice.
I'll stick with beta 4.30.1.8 for now, because I do not want any deterioration... ;)
Menion, Geotagged Media, will there be more changes in handling? I have maybe 200 folders, turning 100s of eye symbols on/off is not realistic.
Otherwise I'd have to rename and put 20k images into one folder and try to use date filtering.
Hierarchy was better in the old instance of geotagged photos.
@Graf Geo
1. hard question. We wanted to work on it this year already, but hope the next ...
2. I miss it too, but understand the reasons why (most of) the rest of the team wants to get rid of it. Create an idea on the help desk with "Easier switch of the profile without recalculation" and with some votes, I may push this topic in the team ;)
@Tapio
do you have an idea, what may help here? A search in folders? A sorting by num of photos?
@Menion
1. so there won't be a track gallery in the long run? Why can't you make it available for the time being as in the last betas and adapt it later (in "a slightly different style", as you wrote) when "Sync of attachments" is implemented one day? It's a shame and even annoying when a good new function is first introduced and then removed again.
2. Done. Even if I don't hold out much hope. Many ideas in the helpdesk quickly slip down the list and then fall out of focus...
@Graf Geo
1. sorry, I know, my mistake. Have to be more careful than before. Same with the "Default action".
I used to push smaller functions out quite quickly, without a wider discussion in the team. But it seems, it won't be so easy now ...
2. thanks

Hmmm, at best a collapsible/expandable hierarchy with the possibility to show/hide all sub-items.
At the very least to be able to activate/deactivate all eye symbols.
Is there a way you can trigger the android media indexing? It's unfortunately not as transparent as the direct file access. You sometimes take pictures, but it takes a while until it appears eg in Locus, Google Photos etc...
I'm currently using the beta version and the track gallery is still there. I have the new version on my second phone for testing purposes and the track gallery is missing.
I took a lot of pictures on my vacation and they are in the track gallery. I don't want to lose them.
So I'll stick with the beta for now.
The Track Gallery will be added later. Will I still lose the pictures when I update?
Or will all pictures on the phone be assigned to the Track Gallery later, even those from the past?
I would say the latter.
The track gallery in the beta (which I will continue to use for now) is just a link to all the images that were taken during recording (regardless of geotagging).
I installed the beta and the new release version a few times (changing between both versions). Every time I reinstalled the beta, the track gallery with all corresponding images was back.
However, "later" seems to be more of a long-term prospect. Maybe sometime next year or even later, as Assamm is making it dependent on the introduction of attachment synchronisation. At least, that's how I understood it.
Sticking with the latest beta for that long probably doesn't make sense.
I don't need attachment synchronization at all. You could also operate it without synchronization for as long as you want.
If it's just a link, then older tracks should also have images. But there are only those that were made after the introduction. You could also link older ones based on the recording time.
For me, photos are also displayed in the track gallery for old tracks, provided I have them on the device.
>>LoPoint categories visible in the point detail, clickable for highlighting on the map<<
only works when at least one offline LoMap is installed.
Only using OAM and online LoPoint no categories are shown.
Found POI by searching also show no categories.

Main issue is Android handling of local photos oos very broken...
i used to have my entire personal photo colelction on an sd card, and easy to remove and sync externally every so often
With phones losing sd cards, and all the file system issues, dealing with Androids "improvements" is a bit of a nightmare.
I made a helpdesk post this week, with the new geotagged layer you can no longer create a poi from geotagged photo...
I vote for a completely new look at locus and photo integration, with photo being able to be imported in to photo point POI, and fully synced to locus web ( and also bilk downloadable, like google takeout)
But a lot of people dont want to keep geotagged photos in one pplace, and personal photos in anotehr, which you could do with old system. I suggested a while back google photos integration, but it looks not easilt done, dropbox integration is easier, ie the actual photo lives on another cloud, and just the thumbnail is attached to the POI
Hi guys,
firstly, yesterday evening, a new 4.31.2 version was released on Google Play.
It brings two important changes: firstly, it solves a critical issue in restoring backups (sorry for this).
Second positive change is improved handling of map labels in vector maps, which should reduce crashes and improve performance in low zoom levels! Hope this won't have any side-effects, because there was not enough time to test it (because of the backup problem) ;D .
---
@freischneider as mentioned correctly by
@Graf Geo, photos are not attached to the tracks. App really only grabs photos <from - to> time interval available in the system and displays them. So removed functionality does not mean removed photos. No worry about it.
@Gerhard57 the problem with LoPoi categories > I'm not aware of any issue, but will look at it.
@Neoaliphant we have also felt there is something bad with the system gallery. We were pushed to remove our old solution, because it used methods marked as "deprecated" and that should be removed in future Android versions. So we now use official recommended solution, but so much unexpected problems with it ... ::)
Anyway, yes, saving of poins from Geotagged media overlay is currently disabled. I hope this is not a big problem for now. We need to improve whole system of attachments. Then, this feature may be re-added back.
I just re-installed previous version with track gallery.
It is just so super 😉.
Understood though the reasons for its removal.
unfortunately Windows 11 is detecting MapGooglePlay_4.31.2 + Auto_1192_release.apk as severe threat: >Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml This program is dangerous and executes commands from an attacker> ;-(
Hi there,
after installing 4.31.2 the App freeze at startup for some minutes before continuing.
I rebooted my phone already, but the App still frezes with a white screen saying "Lade".
After a while I forced the App to quit. Now it behaves as always.
PS: In The meantime I figured out, just to quit the App when it stuck at Startup. After a restart, the app starts really quick. But after ending and restarting it again, it freezes again. It is repeatable like a flip-flop.
Bug? LM is set to EN, but theme options are now displayed in DE, which is Androids language setting.
@Menion, sorry to ask this again, but I think it got lost in thread for last version: Do you think it makes sense and is possible to change the sizes of highlighted and not highlighted LoPoints separately? I find the highlighted much too big in comparison, but can only make them smaller for the price of making the non-highlighted minuscule.
And a similar problem:
In the Expert Settings, you can change the text sizes for "Dynamic Elevation", "Cursor to GPS", "Time Circles", and "Distance Circles" - but not for the "Auxiliary lines". I use that for measuring distances with two-finger-tap, but the number is so small that's it's barely readable, especially on the road and depending on map background.

I second those requests. Now that the track gallery is gone, I went back to geotagged photos, wanted to display my pictures from the day. First problem: Folder not listed -> no way to trigger update of list for new pictures. Then, as Tapio said, at least add (Un)Select All, and either nested hierarchy or text search. My list of folder is also far too long to use here.
Version 4.31.3 is just preparing...

@Andrew Heard "Trojan" ... hmm, as I see, this "Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml" is often false positive. Not sure what I may do with it. Our code is for sure clean. If there may be a Trojan in any 3rd party library ... :o ... it may of course, but I believe we do not use any unverified libraries.
@WildWortWechsel please give a try to the new version, thanks.
@Tapio bug in theme options language > I've forget to check it, so next time, sorry.
@slarti76separation of LoPoints icon sizes > I hope this won't be necessary. Shouldn't be the highlighted icons a lot bigger for better visibility? Are you talking about the new permanent highlight on the map of certain categories?

@menion, no problems, it was just an observation to share with any users downloading via Windows
I eventually downloaded direct to device. I then copied back to Windows PC. PC didn't detect any security issue. There was a virus signature update yesterday - "Security Intelligence Update for Microsoft Defender Antivirus - KB2267602 (Version 1.435.767.0)". Similarly, there was no issue with the latest download to Windows for MapGooglePlay_4.31.3 + Auto_1194_release.apk.

I think opinions will differ on how much bigger, I'm sure. For me, the fact that the icon is given a bright blue bubble is already highlighting enough. Of course, keeping the icon itself in default size makes the whole thing automatically bigger, but to me, this is just way out of proportion.
But just so we're talking about the same thing, I attached a screenshot. I think at least the padding around the icon and the border of the bubble should be thinner. Or, alternatively, separate size factors ;)
One more question: Why not keep the base color of the icon, and instead render everything with fixed light-blue? I mean, the un-highlighted icons all have colors based on categories, would make sense to use those for the hightlighted as well, no?
Hi,
There is a new issue in 4.31.3
The setting "Unlock the screen" is not persistent across program restarts. It always resets itself to off.
Screenshot_20250920_162126_Locus Map.jpg
Also in the Presets, this option can't be added to a preset despite being offered in the options.

Greetings, Ulrich
Did something change with the way Locus handles language settings in 4.31.3? After I installed that (from Google Play), Locus suddenly started up in German. I checked the settings immediately, but Locus was set to "System default" and my system was definitely set to "English (UK)". Don't even know why Locus would choose German, I'm living in German-speaking country but have everything set to English - only the mobile provider might be identifiable as German.
But it gets worse: So I set Locus manually to "English (UK)", which worked, but now my times are still shown with "AM/PM", although I definitely also have "24h clock" set in my system settings (am/pm is the work of the devil ;)). Unfortunately, that's something I can't explicitly override in Locus under "Language & Units".
Any idea?

Every update brings some surprises: broken functions, changed personal settings like this, complicated UI...
Went for a ride on Friday and Locus did fine (beside of the broken guidance). Got the update on saturday evening, went for a groupride on saturday, was the group navigator. Started Locus with navigation mode and had to slow down on each possible junction to unlock the screen. I was yelled a couple of times and the group was not happy with me. Fun has gone. No, when I'm on the bike I don't want to fiddling in any kind of app.
Tried to find "lockscreen" ("Sperrbildschirm") in settings by find function: no matching results and after 15s display went off and all results lost. dangit. The find function in settings is slow as hell.
@menion - may I ask you one more time NOT to touch my settings anymore and test every release PROPERLY BEFORE publishing it?!? I'm begging you for years. Thank you.
How many more users do you want to get rid of? I'm the last one with Locus of a group of eight. Don't know why still hanging with this app.
I'm so frustrated.

Then just wait two weeks for new updates and check the forum or help desk to see if there are any problems.
Thats a smart strategy.
There are some bugs existing in Locus since a couple of years, i.e. doubled points displayed, sporadic crashing route planer, the whole presest system, broken guidance....
How long should I wait for updates?
Disable automatic updates is a mistrust against the developer. If I do that I shoud better deinstall the app or either never get updates.
@Christian
all I can say is sorry. This was an unfortunate side-effect of the change in languages. More and more often, because of the app's complexity, we have some unwanted changes in different parts of the app. I'm getting another push during the last months, that we need to test every change more properly.
The test version tomorrow will hopefully fix this.
You wrote about some unsolved issues > are there any help desk topics about these issues?
@slarti76
My opinion is still, that highlighted icons should not be reduced in scale. Anyway, I've just openeda topic to "icons v2" in our team chat, with reduced padding etc, as you suggested.
Beta version 4.31.3.3 just uploaded.
😬 Please use on your own risk. It fixes a few issues reported since stable 4.31.3, but there are also a lot of changes in background libraries that are not yet perfectly tested, yet. So careful and rather not risk it if you plan some serious outdoor activities! Thanks for understanding, and enjoy your weekend!

So, based on automatic reports (on the Crashlytics), I do not see any other problem with 4.31.5. I was also today without any issue, so it looks very stable, perfect!

nothing like this should happen, of course and thanks for the report! It happens for older tracks, with older, previously working images, or just for the new images? From which device is your screenshot?

this may impact beta testers in future - https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2025/09/lets-talk-security-answering-your-top.html - require ADB to install APKs
4.31.3.5.
When plotting a route in the planner, navigation prompts sometimes get missed. This sometimes happens at certain important intersections.
I also noticed that the route might include stairs.
@Andrew Heard
then we return to distribuion of APK over Google Play. We will see ...
@40°
please create a route with the problem on the web (https://web.locusmap.app), and share it here. I need to simulate the issue. Then, I'll gladly look at it.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BHyOoZ-rhACUb1MSE5HZTwNtDdJdnKc4/view?usp=drivesdk
I tried creating a route that took into account the shortcomings described. And it didn't work; everything worked perfectly.
But two days ago, I created a route in the planner several times, and each time there were shortcomings.
This got me thinking. But this morning, I remembered that I had automatic route recalculation enabled, and while driving, the route automatically recalculated. I repeated the steps for creating a route in the planner, then enabled route guidance. After that, I performed a manual recalculation. All navigation commands disappeared.
And one more thing. Now the navigation says "Straight ahead" at every intersection. This didn't happen before. It's incredibly annoying. It seems obvious to me that you should go straight unless you're told to turn.
@Andrew & Menion: if I understand the article correctly, the adb stuff will be on the developer side. Asamm will register for sure, so APK sideloading Locus should work as today.
@40°
interesting issue and thanks for reporting.
Please give a try to new 4.31.3.6 version. Will have to test it more precisely during the weekend ...
App language messed up. I set to EN, the dialog still highlights german (the device language). App is in english, theme options in german.
I'm unable to simulate it. Which "dialog" and what theme are you using?
Quote from: michaelbechtold on October 09, 2025, 10:04:02the adb stuff will be on the developer side
yes, that was my interpretation too - less convenience for sure; less temptation (or impossible) to install a new beta while travelling, so maybe a good thing ;-) but more seriously, any inconvenience for potential beta testers means less testing
Quote from: Menion on October 09, 2025, 16:27:25Will have to test it more precisely during the weekend
I tested the new version on two phones in GPS emulation mode.
1. "Straight ahead" commands are still generated at every small intersection. This is bad.
2. Navigation commands at major intersections no longer disappear when recalculating the route. This is good.
I plan to ride my bike for the next two days. I'll be using it extensively in real-world conditions.
"Straight ahead" - not sure if this is a new problem. I believe, at least our internal profiles for LoRouter, have always worked like this. In case you are riding on lower priority road over higher priority road, app report this command. And this is your case.
Quote from: Menion on October 10, 2025, 08:19:11"Straight ahead" - not sure if this is a new problem. I believe, at least our internal profiles for LoRouter, have always worked like this. In case you are riding on lower priority road over higher priority road, app report this command. And this is your case.
Straight ahead is important information. When I come to an intersection and Locus doesn't say anything, there are two possibilities. 1. I go straight ahead. 2. I turn left or right and the announcement wasn't generated. To be on the safe side, I have to turn on the screen and look. If the announcement says straight ahead, then I'm sure I'm on the right track.
After Menion explained the priorities, the logic behind using the "straight ahead" navigation command became clear to me. I hadn't known this before, which was why I'd been so clumsy when planning a route. :-)
Fine. I also believe they are very useful, but may be a little obtrusive.
It is almost impossible to say which "straight" commands keep and which not, so we are on the safe side > rather all, than be unsure during the ride.
Excuse in advance this little off topic, but, linked to navigations instructions (for example "Straight", "turn right", etc...), is there a way to customize them, please?
For exemple in French, my own language, there is some instructions which a super long "tournez légèrement à droite".
I would like to know if I can change each message type, by a personalised one.
Specific file to modify? Hard coded? In router profiles?.... 😊
Thanks in advance

Not sure, IIRC it's also mentioned somewhere in help.
@T-mo,
thanks....but :)
I don't have any file for my french language in this folder, just EN ones, and Locus is still able to change instructions per language in the route instructions.
But I may clarify : i need/want to change the gpx export instruction waypoint names <wpt> ;)
See two trials, one made with my phone in english (UK) and wp name are in english, like on Locus route preview, and one in french (FR), same, like in Locus.
UK GPX vs Locus.png FR GPX vs Locus.png
Is it really tts files to manage this ? I doubt now, as I tried to upload a fr.tts and modify it and same instructions are display/exported --> seeems managed else where or i miss something :(
@Mick Fu
seems to be controlled elsewhere, maybe hardcoded and at least to depend on set App language.
I suggest to open a dedicated topic.
bugs:
LM beta 4.31.3.6
- App language not saved, always defaults to system language at start.
- select track > Re-route > profile with 'Include navigation commands' and eg. 6 shaping Points > save as new track. Select New track > Tools > internary. Locus tells 'track includes no waypoints', which could be at least the used shaping points, and no navigation commands are given. I have to use 'Make a copy' and enable 'Add navigation commands' to finally achieve navigation commands.
- attention: ditto, Re-route. Then using the save button (icon next to burger-menu) a dialog opens to overwrite the current track. This might be the original one used for Re-route. Quite dangerous. IMHO a Re-route-track should be handled as new track, though derived, and save should be the same like 'save as new'
