I think I apparently submitted my messages in different ways; they are not in the correct order. Message 2 is now my response with a possible cause.

Hello Marek,

I think I have found the cause of the problem.

In the side panel settings, I specified that there may be 12 function buttons. I also have exactly 12 functions in use. But... on the screen, the icons take up more vertical space than is available. A scroll bar then appears. If you click on it, nothing happens. If I remove 1 function (without adjusting the maximum number of functions), no scroll bar appears and it works! This proved to be reproducible on my smartphone and tablet. I think you have a solution for that?

Hello Marek,

I have made now a MP4-file. Where to upload?

I have checked various settings. I believe they are correct. I am using your latest version 4.3.4.1. I

I think I can put you on the right track now. I always use my tablet in landscape mode. As it turns out, if I turn the tablet to portrait, the buttons do work.......

Hi Menion,

Indeed, any mouse-tap on the right-menu doesn't work. Everywhere else on the screen  does work. A vinger-tap on the menu works. Every tap on the right-site (without menu) works. Also other apps doesn't have problems.

I also use a bluetooth mouse.

Sorry, it might have been unclear that this concerns the app's home screen. It is set so that a double-click brings up the right-hand menu. If I then click on a menu option, nothing happens. I often use the mouse when using the app on an Android tablet.

I use a mouse regularly. Double-clicking the screen brings up the right-hand menu. However, clicking on a menu option there no longer produces a response. Finger operation does work.The menu in the bottom right and all other clickable icons work normally.

Je kan meldingen per soort melding uitschakelen. Dat gaat niet met de app zelf maar via de Android instellingen van de app. Ga dus in Android naar Instellingen > Apps > Locus Msp > Meldingen. Scrol naar beneden en klik op Meldingscatagorieen. Daar staan alle meldingen. Zet uit waarvan je geen melding wilt horen of zien

Ah; I think I've always set 'allow while using app' and didn't notice any problems. Apparently this has changed? I now understand why navigation didn't work properly. Thanks.

When I am busy with actions concerning navigation I have been encountering a blue screen for a while now (see attachment). I understand the nature of the message but how do I get rid of that screen. If I click on the wheel I end up on a screen with app settings. Do I have to do something with this?

When I get to the "Link with presets" screen and press the button to configure the presets, the app breaks and restarts. It asks to clear the cache. Even after this has been done, the app keeps crashing. This happens on both my smartphone and my tablet (Locus 4.26.1)

Unfortunately, I have not been able to respond to the comments for a while due to illness. I suspect that I should explain better what I meant with my comment.

I came across the message announcing the iPhone version. It was made clear that long-term development is needed to a level comparable to the Android version. In itself a nice message for iPhone owners and of course my compliments to the development team for that.

However, I remember a message from some time ago regarding a possible adjustment. Menion wrote that this solution would not be implemented because it could not be implemented within IOS due to security requirements within IOS. If I remember correctly, it was about improving search methods. Using an API from Google was then stopped.

When solutions are possible within Android but are rejected because they cannot be done in IOS, I can only translate that as an expected decline in the level of the Android version. I fear that many more things will not work in IOS in the near future, given Apple's policy. Will that mean that Android will be downgraded? "Nice solutions that we came up with, but it doesn't work within iOS".
That's why I ask whether the Android version is (and especially remains) so full-fledged.

In the above article it is mentioned that the Locus team is busy bringing IOS-Locus to the same full-fledged level as in the Android version.

Android version full-fledged?

I understand that certain improvements desired by the Locus developer within the Android version are being held back because they cannot be implemented within IOS due to the security policy of IOS. It cannot be that the IOS policy is leading in this. That policy was for me and others the reason many years ago that I replaced my iPhone with an Android device to my complete satisfaction. Perhaps a good reason to inform new IOS users about these kinds of things. It has been the case for many years that IOS has been significantly adjusted under pressure from users.

I am considering buying a Chromebook. I am curious about experiences with the Android Locus4 app on a Chromebook. Every now and then I read about problems that usually turn out to be solvable. Most apps give problems now and then; I can live with that. I like to read about experiences with Locus in terms of image, memory, etc. In other words, what should I pay particular attention to?
