Hi,

I'd like to try out the tracking test service.
Nickname: ratisboner
Can you send me the acount data?

Thank you

Big THANKS to pmoravec for the link, that leads to the "screen ON" app in Google Play!

This funktion was integrated in the System of my former Windows Mobile Smartphone, and it was also manually configurable (turn off brightness after "x" seconds, this could be set manually). This saved a lot of accu power with my former GPS navigation software on my mobile, so I could ride mountainbike tours from 5 to 7 hours with one accu pack.

With changing to Android, there was again the problem to save accu power. Searching many forums I realised, that maybe Android users don't know this funktion. So I was searching for this funktion, based on a app, for a long time.
Then I found Locus, with this "auto DIM" solution built into the app - that was perfekt!
Don't know, how other mountainbiking Locus users solve this, but for me it's not easy to wake up the screen by pressing a button, when riding a mountainbike - just touching any part of the screen is much easier! In the evenening or when riding throught the woods, the dimmed screen is often bright enought to see the map or the track I'm following, so the screen is always on, but saves power.
The loss of the "auto DIM" funktion is a big reduction of the funktionality of Locus for me when I'm riding my bike.

So, again thank's for the Link!
And Greetings from Ingolstadt
