Hi, yes. We know it take longer than you and even us probably anticipated. We wanted to cover missing key features before the springtime initially. But in the end we chose harder path in order for the app to be better in the long-term. In case you don't loose patience with us, I am confident to say you will be using better product in the end because of this seemingly "empty" period.

But it definitely isn't empty for us, we are still rushing towards our goals with the app in the development!

1) We spent significant time to upgrade MyLibrary as it was mandatory due to technical reasons to keep compatibility with its huge scheduled redesign on backend servers, Android and Web. And it resulted in better experience with it even on iOS, although we know that wasn't highest priority for users.. But we had to do it anyway. By the way, in the process the iOS version have its first "win" against its older Android sibling - you can now browse your library while see the data immediately on the "live" map on same screen.

2) The next big thing are offline maps. We are in the finish line with the development here. In the process we built completely new vector online/offline LoMaps and offline POI dataset which will upgrade experience even compared to their current versions available on Android. During spring we will launch them on iOS and some time later even on remaining platforms.

3) The next quest will be to deliver 1.gen planner and navigation/guidance features. We will see if we manage to release them during summer, but we will do our best.

So yeah, for this year, the app will definitely keeps its Lite postfix in the name. But we definitely didn't slowed down in the team. Of course, more users willing to support us with activating Premium, bigger change we will be able to speed up the development with additional team member.

[CZ&SK] - diskuze o Locusu / Re: IOS
April 02, 2025, 17:43:35
Dobrý den, každý den jsme k tomu blíže.  :)

Ale realisticky - i my bychom uvítali rychlejší rozvoj naší iOS verze, ale máme před sebou stále ohromné množství práce. Věříme, že základní plánování bude dostupné někdy v polovině tohoto roku a některé další klíčové chybějící funkce do konce roku.

Tou nejlepší podporu, kterou můžeme dostat a která nám může umožnit vývoj dále urychlit je nákup Premium verze.

Thanks for both positive and negative feedbacks guys. Believe us, we know that our web app is still lacking and we are definitely not on the previously projected track with the development. But I can confidently say now, that we recently managed to speed up the development and I hope you will start to see that!

Regarding the topic of reloading the page in particular: I can't promise that the web will soon be able to reload to the same state even with thousands of user-content pre-loaded on map. But the current situation when it doesn't remember almost any state is really bad and we are finally also close to start moving with this issue forward.

iOS version / Re: Locus Map on Macbook

Quote from: DollyNicolas on January 06, 2025, 10:58:08Is it currently added to Macbook?.
Hi, no, it is currently not in our priority list, sorry. I expect to reevaluate this during summer or autumn.

Hi dancatt, I am afraid it will not be soon as complexity of our Locus Map on Android is mind blowing even for us sometimes.  ;D And due to tremendous work ahead of us with this, we can't make any promises.

That being said we are prioritizing most missing features and hope that next year it will be able to cover many more use cases that our users are used to from the full-fledged Locus Map on Android. So please stay tuned!

iOS version / Re: Locus Map on Macbook

Hi, support for Macbooks was not yet decided. It is not much about technical aspects, but there are some legal and product questions which we first must analyse before making the decision.   

In the meantime, you can rely on our web planner: https://web.locusmap.app/

Hi Stefan, place the ideas to our helpdesk portal, in this case particulary here:  https://help.locusmap.eu/topics/idea/status/all/category/37/sort/new_updated/page/1

There, others would also be able to vote for them.

Hello to everyone who is waiting for Locus Map on iOS.

We are not there yet, but we believe we are on right track. We just released our first version of Locus Map Lite in Apple Store. Click on the link to learn about its current capabilities and download it.

https://www.locusmap.app/ios/

For some of you, current feature set will not be enough, but some will be glad to use the app even now. And we will be working hard to bring missing and most requested features, with offline maps being one of the highest priority.

It was long way from there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYn0u-0yuCA  :D

Tell us your feedback and help us to shape the app for the future!

Já mohu problém jen potvrdit. GPX je (když pominu ty ms inkrementy v časech) v pořádku, tedy chybějící body na trase v trkpt svojí lokaci v pořádku mají.
Tu rovnou čáru na začátku trasy kreslí jak mobilní Locus Map, tak web plánovač. @Menion mohu kdykoliv nasimulovat.  Myslím, že toto jde za námi.

Hi blackdog, sorry for such late reply, missed your post. You can have track on this map screen if you record activity within the app via watch. In case you are recording on Locus Map app in mobile phone, the track is not rendered here.

Hi freischneider, thanks for the ideas. Yes, both are planned, we only had to put bigger search upgrades on hold due to other dev priorities, so hopefully we will get back to it in the mid of this year. So sorry it takes so long to continue on this.

Hi, just additional note to 5)  - we are planning to bring login also to our main page (to the top bar just like on web planner), so I guess it will be less confusing then.

Hi, I know I am late, but can't it be because of full Garmin memory?

Hi, I finally managed to rebuild the app without sacrificing its features, added all new devices except Instinct crossover and Edges! Hope it will work for you now!

Again that Google Maps sharing. :) Wait please for next release of the app, I believe it will have major impact on your experience in this. Marek and Menion are doing their magic tricks there now. ;) Lets just hope Google don't change the things on their side soon again..

On other hand, all reports of bad experience while using our new online search are welcomed as we are able to separate/sort  them into technical aspects which we are planning to focus on. This give us better ability to determine whether our expected implementations will make significant change for you or not. Thanks.
