Troubles & Questions / Re: Questions Size Navigation ...
Last post by earnestbrock - Today at 05:18:05I'm glad you brought this up, because I'm kind of stuck with the same things.
That navigation window in the top-left feels really tiny to me too, and I haven't found any setting to increase its size. If there is one, it's pretty well hidden. And yeah, about the long-press → "Navigate to"... I'm seeing exactly what you described. It always jumps into the Route Planner instead of opening the simple navigation menu like it used to. At this point I'm not sure if it's a new behaviour, a bug, or if I accidentally changed something in the settings. If anyone knows how to switch it back or make that widget bigger, I'd appreciate some guidance as well.

Hallo zusammen,
sei A16 hängt das GPS spontan bei der Trackaufzeichnung.
Ich habe bemerkt, dass dies vermehrt auftritt, wenn ich kurze Zeit an einem Ort bin und mich nicht ,,bewege".
Auch andre GPS-Programme funktionieren dann nicht mehr, GPS-Status, GPS-Test, ....
Erst wenn ich LOCUS beende, springt das GPS auf die aktuelle Position.
Manchmal springt das Signal während der Aufzeichnung auf eine ,,alte" Position zurück, was durch eine gerade rote Linie angezeigt wird und irgendwann wieder zurück.
In anderen Foren, das gleiche Problem mit Komoot ... aber immer ist nur vom S24 die Rede
Echt nervig, habe schon überlegt auf A15 downzugraden...oder das Teil in die Tonne zu klopfen.
Ist aber auch nicht die Lösung.

Troubles & Questions / Problem with backup and quick ...
Last post by Graf Geo - Yesterday at 17:15:50I have had this problem several times in recent months on different devices. After importing a complete backup (everything checked), the quick points are initially missing. I then have to reinstall the backup and select only the settings, and only then are the quick points transferred. But unfortunately, this is faulty: the folder assignments are then all incorrect. I have to redo them for each individual quick point. Since I have quite a lot of them, this is annoying.

Last post by Graf Geo - Yesterday at 09:44:39LoPoint Photo Picker no longer works properly, no display of nearest geotagged photos:
Hello, sorry if I've missed something – I've been continuing to use the old beta 4.30.18 because of the track gallery and other useful features that were unfortunately removed in 4.31.
Now I have a new device (Motorola with Android 15) and the current beta 4.31.3.12 on it, and I've noticed that when adding photos to a LoPoint on the map, the handy list of the nearest geotagged photos is no longer displayed, but instead the inconvenient system file manager, where you have to laboriously search for the desired image. At first, I thought this might be due to Android 15, but it also happens on my very old S7 with the same Locus version. On my S10, however, with Beta 4.30.18, the photo picker with the nearest images appears.
Will this also be included in the current Locus version? Otherwise, I will have to install the old beta 4.30.18 on my new device...

Last post by Erelen - November 15, 2025, 03:46:14Almost ok in .12 - the buttons in point/track info panel no longer flies and is always visible.
===
Small issues with point/track info:
1) "hide on title tap" doesn't work with "detailed" (after swipe up) panel. More precisely, this tap does not minimize the panel, but changes the status in which it will appear after swipe down for "normal" view. I think, better solution - "hide on title tap" should work with "detailed" panel too.
2) tap on point/track. Remember map position. Tap "Edit" (pencil icon), then "Cancel". Map position changed.
3) The map position intelligently changes (preserves tapped point in center) when the information panel appears, but ignores panel minimization (tap on title) and do strange little shift when I swipe up for "detailed" view (only with points, not with tracks)
4) when I tap on track, tapped point shifts to center, but in two separate steps: first - horizontally, then vertically.
===
Issues with android navigation bars:
1) in "Quick map switch" last item ("Show more") still under navigation bar.
2) in "Map items" menu "eye" icon of last item is under "+" button. As I understand, there is whitespace after last item, that must help with this, but this whitespace does not take into account the size of navigation bar.
3) same (as "Map items") problem with "Presets" menu.

Ulrich Kiermayr is absolutely right: my two dashboards is unaligned now. Moreover, I can't fix them: in edit mode the bottom row of my dashboards is under android navigation bar - I can't tap on it :)
By the way, how long has the dashboard grid been missing from editing mode? Editing is much more difficult without it. I'm talking about the red and blue lines separating cells - like the ones in the screenshots in this article: https://www.locusmap.app/hi-tech-bike-computer-from-locus/ . Is this a deliberate change or a bug?

Last post by Ulrich Kiermayr - November 14, 2025, 17:49:08Hi,
There is still an issue with the top panel overlapping with other elements: in my case it is the top guidance or navigation panels overlapping with my dashboard (see screenshot). Before, the dashboards top right corner was *below* the top bar. Now the top right corner of the dashboard always is on the top right corner of the screen resulting in the overlap.

Greetings, Ulrich

Last post by Tapio - November 14, 2025, 17:43:43Android 10 OS language (german) vs. Locus set language (en here), still a problem resulting in OS UI in english, theme options in german. But I see, you didn't find anything.
MFV3, I don't need that but for sure there will be some people who will pop up at some point and write walls of text why you should keep it in.
