2. Phone, Ordner dort herstellen. Alle in eine gpx exportieren. Dann im neuen, Ordner anlegen und importieren

Das System zum Bildschirm einschalten wurde geändert. Du musst erneut die Berechtigung bei Bidienungshilfen/Apps vergeben.

Bug Support bis März 2026. Wenn du einen Bug hast solltest du ihn im Helpdesk melden.

Ich Handhabe das genauso. Automatische Export in die Cloud. Dann habe ich es auch sofort am PC.
Backup ist bei mir fast 1GB groß und geht auch in die Cloud. Natürlich nur bei WLAN.
Ich denke nicht damit man da noch mehr braucht.

_Wenn die Ap nicht läuft kann sie gps auch nicht verwenden. Mit immer ist gemeint damit die App auch gps benutzt wenn sie im hintergrund läuft. Sonst kann die app ja den Bildschirm nicht einschalten wenn du abbiegen sollst oder die Ansage machen. Das benötigt jede app.
Aber wenn du die app aktiv beendest dann ist natürlich auch gps tracking aus. Das erlaubt Android schon gar nicht.

Perfect, thanks a lot.

There have to be some problematic contact probably without a name, is it possible? At least in the list of contacts in the Locus Map, there should be missing the main contact name ...

Yes, there are contacts where the name is missing. There is only a first name.

So in public releases is new version 4.28.1_1169, may you give it a try? Thanks!

Now it works. Several attempts were positive. 👍

Crash during search
I have opened the search. Everything still worked. Then I went to the menu and selected Contacts. Now I was asked to assign the authorization for contacts. I selected during Ap usage.
After that, the app was gone and the keyboard was open.
Restarted the app. Now when I try to open the search, the app crashes every time.

In der neuen Version 4.28 wurde was geändert beim automatischen einschalten des Bildschirms. So steht es hier im Block:

Damit kannst du es noch mal probieren.

With a new beta, the change history appears right at the first start.
This was not the case with RC3 and RC4.

favorites in the folder selection > thanks for the feedback. I won't improve it a minute before release, but yeah, agree, there is a space for small improvement. Anyway, I'm not a fan of some kind of "favorites". What about improving the search function and offering the recently selected folders immediately in the search?

I like to work with favorites. But that's just my opinion. I also think that we shouldn't change anything shortly beforehand. Let's wait and see what ideas and comments the majority of users have.
But the idea with the search is not a bad one either. Clicking on search (without typing) shows the most recently used ones.

Now that I am extensively reorganising my folders, points & tracks for the new V2 library, I am finding the Move To function somewhat tedious in that the default folder is always the root. A "recent list" of folders may be even more useful than a "favorite list".

When deleting an empty folder is there any real need for the extra step of ticking a checkbox/ absolving LM of any loss of data? Again seems tedious. When there is a subfolder now there are 2 checkboxes to tick ;-( A recycle bin would almost be the best of both worlds 1) no confirmation step, 2) can undelete if a mistake.

Yes, I also find it very tedious to reconfirm every time I move.
With favorites you could select a folder or last used. Then you would have both.

You would then have to click once more, but the direct display of the favourites folders would quickly overload the list (if you have several folders under root) and force you to scroll.

As a result, the advantage of favorites folders disappears and if there is little use, then it will not be used. But let's wait and see if menion wants to introduce it at all. If so, we could discuss the pros and cons of the different ideas again.

selection of folders > understand, I'll think about it ...

I have now created my folders directly under root.  I didn't know that and it's much better. One click less when moving.
But the idea with favorites folders would still be helpful.
Idea: Show the favorites folders only in the move/select screen. Not in the normal File Manager. You can define 1-4 favorites folders. These are then displayed at the top and below the normal folder structure. If someone does not set a favorite, only the folder structure is displayed.
This would also be useful when importing screens. But there are usually other favorites folders that are needed as when moving.
