@ballett: Ja, die Max. Tempo Angaben sind (zumindest im Gehen/Wandern Modus) meist unsinnig hoch. Ich vermute, dass das an den normalen GPS-Sprüngen zwischen zwei Messungen liegt, die sogar passieren, wenn du stehst oder ganz langsam gehst.
Evtl. kannst du den Fehler durch Änderungen im Aufzeichnungsprofil reduzieren, indem du dort den Distanzintervall und den Zeitintervall anpasst bzw. erhöhst. In meinem Standardprofil habe ich 20 m und 5 s eingestellt. Damit habe ich i.d.R. Max-Tempi von "nur" um die 10 km/h.
611 km/h ist aber echt krass. 

I have noticed the following problem with the current version:

Settings > Language & Units > Text-to-Speech: Locus crashes regularly.

This also happens in Audio Coach > Text-to-Speech.

In der App kann man Farbe (und Stärke, Transparenz usw.) einstellen. Im Webplaner, wie olliz schon schrieb, leider nicht.
Dort werden Rasterkarten verwendet, die keine Themes/Ebenen erhalten. Irgendwann soll auf Vektorkarten umgestellt werden, dann soll das gehen. "Irgendwann" heißt es aber schon seit Jahren. 😉

Da ich überwiegend mit der App plane, ist das für mich nicht so dramatisch. Wenn ich mal den Webplaner nutze, schaltet ich meistens auf die Winterkarten, da sind dann keine bunten Rad- und Wanderwege zu sehen. Sonst nutze ich am PC auch lieber den BRouter.

Yes, that would be nice.

But the vast majority of Android smartphone users don't even know that there are other app stores. For them, there is only the Play Store. Anyone who doesn't place their app there will only reach a minority. Unfortunately.

Most people also don't know that there are other search engines besides Google and other map applications besides Google Maps... etc.

I have had this problem several times in recent months on different devices. After importing a complete backup (everything checked), the quick points are initially missing. I then have to reinstall the backup and select only the settings, and only then are the quick points transferred. But unfortunately, this is faulty: the folder assignments are then all incorrect. I have to redo them for each individual quick point. Since I have quite a lot of them, this is annoying.

LoPoint Photo Picker no longer works properly, no display of nearest geotagged photos:

Hello, sorry if I've missed something – I've been continuing to use the old beta 4.30.18 because of the track gallery and other useful features that were unfortunately removed in 4.31. 

Now I have a new device (Motorola with Android 15) and the current beta 4.31.3.12 on it, and I've noticed that when adding photos to a LoPoint on the map, the handy list of the nearest geotagged photos is no longer displayed, but instead the inconvenient system file manager, where you have to laboriously search for the desired image. At first, I thought this might be due to Android 15, but it also happens on my very old S7 with the same Locus version. On my S10, however, with Beta 4.30.18, the photo picker with the nearest images appears.

Will this also be included in the current Locus version? Otherwise, I will have to install the old beta 4.30.18 on my new device...

Das liegt daran damit du einen Track zum navigieren genommen hast. Diese Funktion ist immer noch nicht gut. Die Hinweise werden anhand des Winkels generiert. Wenn dein Track nur eine leichte biegung hat kommt nichts.

Diese Funktion ist m. E. sehr gut. Ich verwende sie fast immer, da sie für mich zuverlässiger und präziser ist als die vorab generierten Navigationsanweisungen. Wenn mal ein Abschnitt mit Serpentinen oder vielen Kurven kommt, stelle ich vorübergehend die Benachrichtigungen stumm, ansonsten bin ich sehr zufrieden. Auch die ETA passt dann besser, zumindest zu Fuß im Flachland oder Mittelgebirge. Meine Erfahrung seit langem.

Bei mit liegen die Karten auf der externen Speicherkarte (mapsVector) und die Themes darin im Unterverzeichnis (mapsVector/_themes) und werden korrekt angezeigt.

@freischneider: it's the name of the map provider (Freizeitkarte):

I tried it once, but I don't want to have too many map variants on my device.

@nfranche54: Maybe just reinstall it from the website mentioned?

For me, photos are also displayed in the track gallery for old tracks, provided I have them on the device.

I would say the latter.

The track gallery in the beta (which I will continue to use for now) is just a link to all the images that were taken during recording (regardless of geotagging).

I installed the beta and the new release version a few times (changing between both versions). Every time I reinstalled the beta, the track gallery with all corresponding images was back.

However, "later" seems to be more of a long-term prospect. Maybe sometime next year or even later, as Assamm is making it dependent on the introduction of attachment synchronisation. At least, that's how I understood it.

Sticking with the latest beta for that long probably doesn't make sense.

@Menion
1. so there won't be a track gallery in the long run? Why can't you make it available for the time being as in the last betas and adapt it later (in "a slightly different style", as you wrote) when "Sync of attachments" is implemented one day? It's a shame and even annoying when a good new function is first introduced and then removed again.

2. Done. Even if I don't hold out much hope. Many ideas in the helpdesk quickly slip down the list and then fall out of focus...

Hmm, not good news.

1. when do you estimate that "Sync of attachments" will come and then hopefully the Track Gallery again?

2. not a good idea to remove the setting. Can't you at least put it in the Expert Settings? I definitely want to be able to select "Continue with" as the default and not always have to click twice.

I'll stick with beta 4.30.1.8 for now, because I do not want any deterioration... 

I have now installed the new V 4.31.0 on my old Galaxy S7.
No track gallery here either. 

I tried again and reinstalled V 4.31.0 + Auto (AFA). As feared, still no track gallery.  

No photos are displayed for the tracks. No matter which directory, not even the one you mentioned. That's strange, because it worked fine in the last betas. The geotagged photos are displayed correctly on the map. But not for the recorded tracks.

Is the "show Media" option displayed under Settings > Points and Tracks? It is no longer available for me either.

Now I'm going to go to the trouble of uninstalling the new version and reinstalling Beta 4.30.1.8.

It would be nice if Menion could comment on this. Perhaps it is due to my device and my Android version. However, this is unlikely, as it worked correctly with all betas since the introduction of the track gallery.
