[Beta version for the weekend 4.29.0.1]

Beta version for the weekend 4.29.0.1 (17.4.2025)

Windows 11 is detecting a Virus in MapGooglePlay_4.29.0.1_1179.apk. I'm prevented from saving the downloaded file. Tried 4 times. Tried with Vivaldi & Edge browsers. I've never experienced this before. I was looking forward to testing the track list scroll position ;-( Is anyone else downloading on Windows? If hacked, maybe in future, a file hash SHA256 or similar is provided like a few other download sites provide. Am hoping Windows has simply got the signature confused.

I've reproduced your issue. The error just means the routing engine has no information to connect to a point not on a "way"; in my screencap #3. The webplanner does not support direct/ manual track sections. You can however plan your route to an off-way point from Android.

must be bug - far less than 1/4

Tested with V1.55.1: I can add any combination of own & Locus points into a web route.

tweak <faster rendering of tracks with "mileage" at low zooms> - tested with 1,500km route - super fast rendering - amazing!!

Would it be more reliable for searching, and more intuitive for the user, to add a new Help topic Category instead of the user having to remember exact format for manually entered free form "android auto"?

Well done Emilio.

Even doing a "search" within LM for "backup" doesn't result in any help. Very frustrating.

Hi Emilio. I've done this transfer from device to device many times now. It's always been tedious. The best way for me has been a full backup to ZIP on device 1. A full restore from ZIP on device 2. I use FileZilla to transfer files between devices. The poor part has been locating the backup function inside the new Locus.

From my notes: Settings > All features > Set up > Setting > Backup & filesystem > Backup manager > Restore from backup > System file manager > select appropriate ZIP.

best of luck

A little harder to do it better I think

@Menion - surely no need for a 200km/h setting?

Accelerated map - it appears the map loading & display has been considerably sped up - is this the release note change below? Wow - it's amazing.

are the 50/ 100/ 200km/h defaults for automatic zooming useful? maybe it was some experiment of mine years ago, as I don't use this function. apologies if so

[ALL]

I forgot one thing.
go to a subfolder - tap three points - tools - export - export title: name of the subfolder
ALL of the tracks within the db are exported
Is this supposed to be this way?

@Christian - visibility is different to "selected". Try long-tap on an item > checkbox > (optionally) other checkboxes > export. I hope that works; just going from memory as someone else asked recently.

Quick return to (into) a certain folder was always possible by tapping a diplayed track on the map

@Christian - if the track is visible.

With such massive functionality there will be a broad spectrum of opinion. Can't please everyone all the time. I have saved all my tracks & POI since ~2015. I have a top level folder for each year. Underneath is a folder for each mode - walk, car, bike(group), bike(solo), run, trips, other. Underneath trips (now) is a folder for each holiday, often with POI along the way & places stayed. Underneath are sometimes folders with various routing options. The new flexibility has made my organisation consistent, flexible, grouped together & easier to find what I want. Everyone will be different.
 

Not sure what is the advantage of the new Lib.

@Christian - for me the standout advantages are:

• single consolidated "folder structure" instead of artificial distinction between tracks & points
• up to 6 levels of subfolders
• quick "return" to current folder when MyLibrary button is tapped (instead of navigating any hierarchy)

I didn't have any problems with my dashboards during upgrade.

if there exists any location from the GPS in history, no matter how old

nice feature
