Add-ons / Re: Locus Map for Garmin

« on: January 19, 2020, 11:06:18 »

Is there a plan for making the Garmin watch able to launch/pause/stop the track recording in the smartphone Locus Map app, in replacement (or complement) of the track recording in the watch itself (already available)...?

Yes! This is actually quite high on our priority list!

I do not like the start and stop feature on the watch because there is always the case that an unwanted button press stops the recording track. But the lap/point mark should be usefull.

Hi, doesn't your model support buttons lock feature? Start/stop feature is implemented to behave similar as native activity apps.
Create waypoint feature is also in consideration.

Hi, that is the limitation of Garmin Connect IQ platform. The map will never be as fast as on Android Wear.

Hi, Navigation screen is active when you run guidance via track, because some tracks have nav instructions usable even on this mode.

Hi, this is issue which I am aware that it might be happening for some users but wasn't able to simulate or find more details about it yet. Seems like just another Garmin connectivity issue which I am unable to handle in the app  . Please let me know if reinstall really solved this issue for you or it returned occasionally. Thanks!

Yep, just hold MENU (or UP) button.

Of course, the app uses sort-of continuous BT connection , so it might stress BT module little bit more. But it really just uses connection and do not control it. So I am afraid, I really can't do anything regarding its stability. But please let me know if it will be happening repeatedly.

Hi,

thanks for your report. So based on your description, something in your phone crashed during your activity resulting mallfunction of Bluetooth service. I am afraid I can't affect stability of Android OS, the app doesn't do any control of Bluetooth connectivity. You are first to report such issue.

Hi fera,

first for all, I am not author of apps on Wear OS and Tizen.  These were done by Locus team.  

Not sure if I will be able to squeeze cadence somewhere until I release version with customised datascreen, but lets leave it open now.

As for the sensors connected to the phone, we may apply similar customisation to even phone recording screen for the future, but there are some technical challenges here, so can't promise anything yet.

Tak to se omlouvám za zmatení. Plánujeme překlad do ČJ, ale prozatím to není hotovo. N/A znamená že funkce není k dispozici z důvodů na straně zařízení a ne aplikace.

V té tabulce je samostatný sloupec pro informaci o podpoře importu tras, přehlédl jste ho?

Tou větou myslím, že můžete používat aplikaci ve spojení s Locus Map v telefonu a navádění skrze ni tímto způsobem - viz. popis obrazovek v návodu.

I have another question: on a fenix 6 (Connect IQ compatible) but which is not "Pro" or "X" (without any Garmin original cartography), can the watch show my smartphone LoMaps current map on its screen, as can do my Sony SmartWatch 3 ?

Hi, I missed your question, sorry. Yes, now you can even with natively non-map garmin models (except the oldest one)!   

EDIT: But one thing to add here: Fenix 6 PRO and other Garmin music or map models can utilise more memory for the app which Locus uses for better map caching when changing the screens and ability to activate enhanced map colors mode. Nothing fancy, but just want to point out, that although both F6 and F6 PRO can render maps via Locus, F6 PRO can do it a LITTLE bit better. Sorry to complicate your decisions a little.

Hello

Datafields are not yet customisable but it is of course one of the feature which we want to bring in some future versions.
Thank you for the feedback! The app must supports lots of screen sizes and layout configurations, so its not easy to fine tunes fonts/pixels on all models. We will try to improve it in the future.

Fenix 3 bohužel nemá dostatek paměti pro zobrazení mapové obrazovky, viz. tabulka kompatibility na odkazu v předchozím příspěvku.

Dobrý den, Fenix 3 má bohužel příliš starou verzi Connect IQ platformy, která nepodporuje import trasy skrze aplikace třetích stran. V případě naší aplikace Locus Map for Garmin máte tedy k dispozici jen vlastní navigační/naváděcí část aplikace - tak jak je uvedeno v tabulce kompatibility (https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:add-ons:locusforgarmin#compatibility).

Hi Sbouju,

Fenix 6 is already supported, so why don't you install it? Broken maps on Fenix 6 will be fixed in next few days with new version.

EDIT: Oh, I didn't understand your answer at first.
Yes, with Fenix 6 PRO, you will have in Locus Map additional screen with Garmin maps. But with version 2.0.0, which will come in just few days, you will get another map screen in Locus Map regardless Fenix 6 model you choose to buy, so this might ease your decision.
