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?

Notification Center keeps reporting updates.  If you click on "more" you will be notified that there are no more updates.

The place name displayed at the bottom of the screen (here Leeuwarden) is incorrect.  Here Leeuwarden is the municipality to which the town of Grou belongs.  The place name must therefore be Grou.

I use many offline Lomaps because of traveling throughout Europe. Now and then I get a message that new versions can be updated.  There are quite a few actions required for each Lomap before the update starts.  Is there a way to update all installed maps at once?

That's nice to read.  Thank you for your quick response.

There is nothing wrong in itself;  although?  Because the link refers to youtube, youtube is kind enough to 'beautify' the sight on my smartphone with advertising that has nothing to do with Locus.  See the attachment.  And the Premium and Gold versions are free of ads, right?

My wife and I both use Locus4 on our smartphones, each with its own plan.  I myself have a Gold annual subscription.  My wife also has a subscription and takes out the Gold subscription several times a year for a few months.  For years I have been downloading the OAM maps and copying them to the other smartphone via a backup.  I now want to use the Lomaps and work in the same way.  But is that actually possible?  I can imagine that it is possible and that the cards only become visible when the Gold subscription has started and are invisible again when Gold has ended.  Or will problems arise?

I have the Gold version and started downloading the new Lomaps.  I now notice for the first time that an circle with arrow is visible at the top of the screen.  See appendix.  If you click on it, an advertisement will appear.  Why is this?

I can remember from earlier times that it was possible to indicate the maximum size when creating a zip file.  If the zip file was larger, it was automatically divided into several files with a serial number.  Is this an option to send smaller zip files?
