Well, since you asked...  :-)     Imagine Mapsource, but web-based.  All your data (waypoints, tracks, saved routes, etc) in one spot, in an application where you can keep them organized (folders, groups, tags, whatever) on a 'big screen', and see them on a map, etc.  The data and changes made in the web-based application then sync to your device(s).
--SNIP--

@gcfishguy, you're basically explaining what the new Locus Web Interface does. You seem to have found the page (which is in Beta, mind you), and then you list all the features that are already there or are planned (see the other thread).

So people wonder: What do you want (more)?
Or are you just unhappy that the first version doesn't fulfil all of your dreams?

Sorry, I must have missed some of the upcoming plans. 
Thanks for the info.

@gcfishguy
Not sure what more you want than what offers the Beta version of web.locusmap.app. There won't be any other website for Locus Map with map etc  . It has its own topic here, so feel free to ask there if you miss any functionality. Many features are planned for the next versions.

++++++++++++++++++++++++

Everybody's different, but I save my tracks every time I'm out. So I have saved waypoints and tracks and trails from years of Jeeping, ATVing, motorcycling, trail bike, side-by-side... I like to have it all with me because you never know when you'll need to try and find a trail to get to gas, shelter, etc...
I have the ATV and SxS tracks in specific folders, organized a certain way..the motorcycle tracks are organized differently because they're mostly on-road, and so on.

My only 'complaint' with Locus, is that you have to work on a small touchscreen device.  Yes, you can use an Android emulator, but that comes with a whole other bunch of headaches....

For the way I use Locus, a web-based Mapsource (if you will) would be a dream come true.  About the only product I've found that comes close to my dream is Gaia, but (not to bash another product) I simply can't work with the way they have their online folder structure set up.  And how it creates new folders whenever a GPX or anything is imported, etc...

So..when I heard that Locus was coming out with a web-based interface of sorts, and that your data would be accessible there....I naturally had high hopes.

This isn't a complaint..just wanted to explain what my dream was.   Who knows..maybe there are a lot of others that are hoping for the same thing, and now that there's some sort of web interface with some of our data accessible, maybe it can grow down the road.   :-)

I'm unsure if this is the proper thread, so please move if it's not...

I've always been hopeful that Locus would come out with a web interface, where you can see your points and tracks and work with them...move, copy, import, etc...along with an interactive map and so on. Sort and organize waypoints, edit tracks, sort them into groups and folders...
(Think that other mapping app that starts with a G...but their directory structure is painful at best)

I did find the web.locusmap.app site, but (for my purposes), it doesn't have the functionality that I (specifically) would like to see.  Not complaining, as it is likely the cat's meow for people who plan trips online...   

Does anyone know if there's plans for something like this...or if it already exists?  (I say that because I have been reading up on version 4 for a few months now and only stumbled on a post about the web planner by accident)
