@Andrew Heard
Both "itineraries" have different use-case. In the route planner, it is mainly about the option to see all segments on one screen and the option to change easily it's order. In the active navigation route planner, it is about a common itinerary known from bigger navigation apps. It should be read-only and give quick overview of what will come.
Can't imagine how to merge them to be true 

I guess Andrew meant:
- RoutePlanner-iternary being an parameter-list (input, via-points)
- Navigation-iternary being an calculated result-list (output)(containing the via-points as used constraints)
Currently you see the (calculated) results in
- RoutePlanner as drawn route > graphics only
- after starting navigation as route & iternary > graphics + table
even though it's in both situation already calculated.
In RoutePlanner maybe without fetching road-names.
With having the full result you can better decide whether to use it or not..if you started the process of navigation, it's not that easy to step back.
Maybe you are in unknown territory and someone gives you some hints, use a certain  street, whatever..

Currently you have to do some clicks and cannot go back and forth easily.

In my opinion the iternary could gain some structure and styling to clearly differ between input-points and calculated parts between
- shaping point 1
-  road/segment 1
-  road/segment 2
- ..
- shaping point 2
-  road/segment 1
- ...
- shaping point 3

maybe collapsable 

short feedback: after trying several times with each LM4 RCs and drop in vibrations, LM4 final made LocusStore and subscription working. Hallelujah!
Must have been some sort of Easter egg

Is your "Android System WebView" component up to date? Play Store. There was a widespread crash problem recently.

yes, it's that recent update of the problem-update, it's 89.0.4389.105. Thanks.
LocusPro-Store works by the way. I'll wait, sth.'s wrong somewhere, no nerves for install-tests currently

@T-mo
seems your "Premium" does not work at all. Please try this new version once it will be available. Maybe re-login (over Locus Store for now) if no change after the display of the "My subscriptions" screen in the app.

check this out: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-9nHkimo_wojf6aVE9pFMVruCsGJZAaq/view?

LM4, went premium (Pro in 2012 )
- ads have temporarily gone - at start, later back
- Locus Store not accessible
- choosed POI Alert as functionality - still subscription notes, function then not usable. After notes, the ads reappear still like this funky 90-style
- still 'Go Premium' (polishing)
- Locus is noted correctly in GooglePlayStore as subscription (still did my screenshot during process)

even though I got my troubles with the change to subscription, the prices are well done and I lost my troubles That is due to the fact that you are really well caring, we all know and love and join, and push , and the prices.
Well, the current situation clearly shows - there has to be a proper solution for families.
Better Locus than any other crapp.
E.g. if it's about live-tracking, for security concerns, that should be possible for members with propper intents.

989_beta: route planner seems to work, but the track is not visible. Points/initery, chart and stats available.

blue-lock symbol: low contrast

Hello Menion
nice progress - as always. Thanks

• route planner - map layer - map & theme not working (seems to be only that, shading & grid works)
• search - contacts > the contact-list shows names and addresses, but after selection it is noted 'required search options are not available'
• req: search - recommendation: also add OpenStreetMap (I guess it might be https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org) as it's well known and appreciated by a lot of people (I currently choose graphhopper to not use any of the kraken - this might be ok though, I also appreciate graphhopper)

I also prefer red - well, I must admit I have been conditioned

Thank you Frank, really like this theme and use it a bit next to Elevate and VoluntaryUK.
my thoughts:
do you know a possibility - to me as a user - to scale the icon-sizes? I prefer them to be a bit bigger, this might also be device-dependent.
I was a bit astonished after opening the .xml with Notepad++ as all contents is en-masse
IMHO the outdooractive-icons have a slightly bigger outline and therfore seem to float a bit more above the map. Just my perception, there is already an outline which I really like as it is easier to recognize the icon in contrast to the map-content.

Menion, I currently only use Locus in a very basic way.

• What I really like with LM4 lately:
  using the route planner and brouter internal we achieve the new Way-types and Surface indication.
  I really like the use of them as sliders to slide along the route
  This is not possible with the Elevation profile, you still have to jump to certain positions, no sliding left-right possible..
  Can you also add this sliding-possibility to the elevation-profile?
• I was driving around in car with friends and routing on and showed the friends-childs my cool jedi-move to control the display (wave once). Even after using the PIN and fingerprint it still sometimes happens to me, with this function enabled and certain time of display-off, that Locus seems to fight something and the screen goes on/off/on/off/../..infinity > only reboot the phone helps. I don't have any further tools in use to control this. Can you doublecheck the implemented routine, changes without onn-off-checks, ..? Can you implement a disable-fallback if there are maybe 6+ times the on/off-event within some seconds (event-count vs event-time-difference-ratio, sort of, e.g.)...which might be a very strange usecase if really meant like this.

@menion

• routing: ok, thanks. to be honest, Locus is at an impressive state, and with possibilities of brouter (thx to Arndt) and graphhopper (thx to Peter Karich & Co) we got the 2 best routing-engines running and can process at any time. if it's for the best sake and some powerful features, that's a good way to go, for sure. I also think I got your idea, simplification for no-pros is obvious, but also profiles, estimations, etc.
• sync: ok. I appreciate your sense for property. just as a note, as I care: I personally only sync with my personal clouds..syncing settings might be passable, syncing content I stay with export-import. Active push to databases (upload) is a different thing, for sure.

• there is demand for custom profiles. I know about it. It's doable, but not so simple. So later please.

  I guess internal profiles are only pre-defined custom-profiles, isn't it? just making dev-fun

@menion

• changing to internal brouter: is it heavily locus-tailored or are you easily able to keep with updates if Arndt will so and are you willing to do so? That's still a general question as you start drop app-support, sort of. For sure, google continues stealthen and puting everything more into a bin, creates limitations, which also limits possibilities (which is more a con if you think positive, though might bring barriers to those who harm)
• Sync db - I like the idea of community-created content. That helps a LOT. But if it's not fine-grained configurable (assumption) and decisions are possible at very clear UI-controls/-points, who might gonna use it? There are so many personal points and trips within my db..user decides, as always. I am very sure that bulk-sync won't happen..I can only speak for myself, sure

Lieber Hans, ich nehme mal an,  my_theme ist ja wohl nur ein Platzhalter. Die pdf muß am Ende den gleichen Namen haben wie die .XML Deines genutzten Themes.
Nutzt Du zb OAM-Elevate, dann wird die Elevate.xml herangezogen und wenn Du eine PDF nutzt, dann sollte diese Elevate.pdf oder Elevate_de.pdf heißen.
Diese sollte genau neben der .XML liegen.
Versuch das mal bitte, könnte klappen 

Here long-press-menu (main map screen, hamburger-style flag-button) does work - a new window 'Public Tools' pops up with Tweaks and Basic tools. Expert settings activates the additional 'Expert settings'-entry in Settings
