At least on the old S7, the beta does not function. I completely uninstalled Locus and then reinstalled the beta.

After the initial launch, I was able to log in with my Locus account, but then the version kept crashing and would not start.
I uninstalled it again and installed the latest release version 4.30.1, and everything is fine.

I won't risk it on my S10 for now.

Fortunately, I read Tapio's post in time and didn't install the beta on my main device. I'm going on holiday for a week and need a working Locus, which is the case with the current stable version.

I installed the beta on my old S7 for fun and, as I feared, there are serious problems. After the lengthy scanning of the geotagged media, Locus no longer starts and crashes regularly during the start-up process, so I don't even have a chance to turn anything on or off.

I'll just wait until there's a new beta version, which will hopefully work. Until then, have a nice holiday and relax, and thanks anyway. 🙂

Ja, da verrutscht immer wieder was. Die manuelle Positionierung der Dashbord-Elemente ist und bleibt eine Qual und bei jeder UI Änderung gibt es Probleme. Daher nutze ich eigentlich nur noch die Overlay-Positionierung oben oder unten.

Not a bug, but not very intuitive behaviour. If you click on a different profile in the new profile list while planning a route, the entire route is recalculated. As @freischneider already wrote, you now have to go to the three-dot menu and select "continue with".

You have to figure that out first if you haven't been following the new development of the route planner that closely. I had actually forgotten about it myself, as I rarely use the function and usually add individual segments with a long press on the plus button.

Perhaps the opposite behaviour would be better or more sensible: when you select a different profile during route planning, planning continues with that profile. If you want to recalculate the entire route, you should do so explicitly by pressing a button to recalculate everything, or, for example, by long-pressing the profile.

For me personally, there is no need for change here, but perhaps it would be easier for new users if the behaviour were changed.

Without opening the route planner:

• Open global search (magnifying glass icon).
• Insert your coordinates in the search field.
• Confirm the coordinates by clicking on the entry.
• Map moves to this coordinates.

Altenative 1:

• Copy your coordinates from any source.
• Open global search (magnifying glass icon).
• Click the hamburger button at the top right.
• Choose "Location". Click "Search".
• The "Move to..." dialogue box opens.
• Choose Clipboard.
• Choose Ok.
• Map moves to this coordinates.

Alternative 2:

• Open global search (magnifying glass icon).
• Choose "Location". Click "Search".
• The "Move to..." dialogue box opens.
• Choose Coordinates.
• Enter your coordinates (select format if necessary).
• Click "Set".
• Map moves to this coordinates.

Warum probierst du es nicht einfach? 

Natürlich geht das, mache ich ständig.

@Menion:

Thanks for the update. You didn't mention it in the changelog, but clicking on the red pointer now moves the map directly to the location you're looking for. Perfect. 👍

(See this topic)

I don't know if it's because of the new version or the latest LoMaps update. In any case, street names are no longer assigned to shaping points in the route planner, and when saving the route, the title is no longer entered ("Untitled").

Okay, that's sorted. A few days ago, I updated all my LoMaps using the new mass update function. Since then, the addresses/street names had disappeared.

Now I've downloaded all the maps again individually and now I have three files per country/region: *osm.maps, *.osm.db and *poi2.db
I think the osm.db files were missing before.
In any case, the addresses are now back.
No idea what happened there.

I don't know if it's because of the new version or the latest LoMaps update. In any case, street names are no longer assigned to shaping points in the route planner, and when saving the route, the title is no longer entered ("Untitled").

Thank you very much! Everything looks good for now and two or three little things from the last beta have been fixed.

One question, (still with the setting "Centre on pioint" OFF): Global search for a location outside the screen, the red direction marker appears.

I click on it and now always have two identical entries in the "Select element" menu in 4.30.0. Both can be clicked and move the map there. See screenshot 1. Before there were at least two entries with different icons and only the one with the small square could be clicked. Screeshot 2.

In general, I wonder why the map does not immediately move to the location when I click on the red direction marker. The select element list with two identical entries is an unnecessary intermediate step. What is it for?

(I know that if two or more LoPoints are very close together on the map and I click on them, the "choose element" menu also appears, but then of course there are different entries in it and the list makes sense. But that's a different use case.)

@Tapio: Bei mir passt das mit dem Wiedereinstiegspunkt eigentlich meistens ganz gut, an der nächsten möglichen sinnvollen Kreuzung oder so werde ich wieder auf meine Route geschickt. Und wenn mir das nicht passt, gehe ich einfach weiter bis zur nächsten Neuberechnung. Ich würde sogar eher mehr in Richtung vorwärts gewichten und lieber ein kleines Stück der Route überspringen.

Aber Gedanken lesen kann LM natürlich nicht. (Komoot aber wahrscheinlich auch nicht:)

Wenn erst ab 200m Abweichung neu berechnet wird, Du aber bereits bei 50m Abweichung auf "Zielführung" umschaltest, bekommst Du doch nur noch die Zielführungslinie angezeigt?

Richtig. Wobei man sich auch bei der Zielführung was ansagen lassen kann (nutze ich nie, ich glaube da wird dann die Gradzahl genannt, in die man gehen soll). 

Ja, vermutlich liegt es an deinen Einstellungen, denn bei mir funktioniert das ausgezeichnet.
Ich habe eingestellt:

• Abweichen Info: aktiviert, 50 m, Piepton (Du kannst auch Text zu Sprache wählen)
• Routen-Neuberechnung: Strecken Priorität. Abweichung, ab der neu berechnet wird: 200 m (je nach Bedarf ändere ich den Wert auch mal).
• Erweiterte Einstellungen: Strikte Routen-Navigation OFF (sonst würde die Neuberechnung dich zurück auf den Punkt führen, wo du die Route velassen hast. Das ist nur sinnvoll, wenn du keinen Meter deiner Route verpassen willst oder darfst.)
• Maximale Abweichung von der Route: 50 m (Entfernung ab welcher auf Zielführung umgeschaltet wird, um zurück auf die Route zu kommen)

Wenn ich die Route verlasse (> 50 m) wird gepiept und die blaue Pfeillienie zeigt dynamisch auf die Route. Ab 200 m wird neu berechnet und zum nächsten Punkt (in Vorwärtsrichtung) auf meiner Route navigiert und dann normal weiternavigiert. Ich komme damit prima klar.

Trotzdem wirst du kein 1:1 Komoot Verhalten erzielen. LM kann halt viiiel mehr und natürlich bringt das viele Einstellungsmöglichkeiten mit sich, was es für Gelegenheitsnutzer nicht ganz einfach macht.

IMHO pressing the dedicated UI-element (icon with indicator of off-screen-position) should also provide this functionality if actively pressed, my suggestion, currently it does nothing.

I have also deactivated this setting for the same reasons.

The red point red marker works for me when searching for a location or item via the global search. It opens a menu "Select item", clicking on the lower entry with the square moves the map there. See screenshot.

It does not work when selecting a "nearest point" in the left panel. I wrote about it here and Menion replied here.

@T-mo:
"a lot of area is used and wasted with information not that relevant to me"
It may be irrelevant to you, but it is not to many other users. However, I would appreciate it if this track info panel could be individually configurable. Unfortunately, this is not planned for the time being.

"point, red marker"
Check the Expert Settings to see if "Centre on point" is enabled under points.

"LoPoints, other symbols"
Yes, LoPoints can only be enabled all or none. You can only highlight certain categories.
