Title: No custom icons over sync?
Post by: macfrank on December 27, 2025, 14:30:56
Hi, I just subscribed to gold to use the web app to better (re)organize my library and then sync it to a second device.

It seems, my custom point icons are not synced ?! They get replaced with the folder's icon. How can I sync my custom icons und what happens when I sync to the other device (which already has the related icon zip file).

Hello,
this is still not yet solved task on our side. Sorry for this.

Anyway, if you manually copy a custom icon pack on a second device, then icons should be preserved after sync in case, you will not modify points on the web. Give it a try. It should work.

I, see. A bit of a dissapointment, because for me the important point (no pun intended ;-)) of the web app would have been to better reorganize my points and have a better overview than on the smartphone. I have about 30 different custom icons and in the web app they all look the same.
Basically since I first used Locus many years ago I almost exclusively use the Garmin icons and my self-made custom icons which I brought over from using Garmin devices for many years before. I never found the Locus icons very useful because they look so similar. So, I'm using almost the same icon set for almost 20 years now :-)
