Open a point's detail page. At the bottom there are 4 icons to click at: map, guide, puzzle, arrow

Hi,

I want to quickly start my own offline Navigation App ("HERE Maps") when clicking at a point's context menu. Right now when clicking onto "Navigate to" just the internal Locus-Navigation screen is openend. But I don't want to use these Locus powered Navigation methods, just open the "HERE Maps"-App out of the context menu.

Right now I just can start these app with several additional clicks, which is of course tedious:

- click on point
- click on the left side of point's popup-window
- click onto "puzzle" icon
- click onto "Map apps"
- click onto "Navigation apps"

=> now "HERE Maps" starts with the point's coordinates as Finish of the Route.

Hi!

Right after recording a track, I save it and export it as .GPX-file into a folder of my phone, which runs Android 6.
After that I'm connecting the phone to a PC, using USB cable, for copying the trackfile to my PC.

Now the problem: When opening the phone's export folder within my PC's file explorer, I don't see the exported .GPX-track file to copy it to my PC. 

Each time I've to reboot my phone first, before my PC sees this new exported file on my phone.
Or another method I found out: if I copy the exported file with a *file browser on my phone* into another folder on my phone, I could see this copied file on my PC immediately too.
Both methods are of course not ideal and a pain.

Does anybody have the same problem when exporting tracks and right after that connecting the phone to a PC using USB-cable? Any possible solution to prevent to reboot my phone each time I want to copy a track to my PC?

I just found the slightly hidden option: Settings/Miscellaneous/Clear tempory data/Unused attachments which finally deleted these Images.

I'm sure, not many Locus user know about this option. So what do you think about my idea of deleting them when deleting the track? Or at least run "clear data/Unused attachments" within a certain time period (each 1 or 2 months) or when the attachments reach a certain file size?

The same would be an idea for the Cache of online maps, which also could get very large after some months.

Hi,

When recording a Track I often add points with Photo or Video Attachment. After deleting the track I expected Locus to delete these Media attachements too. But they are still there in the folder Locus/data/media and fill up the memory of my phone.

Could Locus please delete these media files too when deleting the track they belong to?

Very good, just received the update. I should have waited another 2 hours

Hi,

since about some week I've got the following problem: When switching to an offline raster map, the current zoom-level is lost and the raster map is displayed in its minimum zoom level.

For example I'm working in zoom level 15 and switching to the raster map. It is displayd now with Zoom level 6 and I've to zoom in severl times to have same view angle as I had with the the former map.

This problem is just when switching to raster maps. When switching to offline Vector map or Online map, the zoom level stays the same.
