main information
- firstly, do COMPLETE BACKUP of your databases! (menu > functions >backup > complete) Locus has some small changes in database and I had to change a way how styles for tracks are stored, so after you store any track with this new system, it will not be back compatible to old version. So you'll have to use this test version till new version will be on Google Play (one, max two weeks), or restore backup and use normal Google Play version
- also at start, Locus will perform complete re-init of all maps, so first start should be slower
- I'm not responsible for damages on data, that may occur! So do it on your own risk (I do not expect any damages, but just for sure)
- if you'll have any problems with maps loading, try to remove "cache" directory
