Quote from: WildWortWechsel on Yesterday at 22:37:44Hi Locus Team!

I just deleted three larger GPX from the folder "Gesamtstrecken". Now there a four Trails. Going one step back in the folder Hierarchie, the amount of files in the folder "Gesamtstrecken" is still seven.

Because the trails are really large, Android did ask me if I want to stop Locus or just wait. I did stop and restarted Locus.
Speaking as a programmer myself, but you can't really expect all internal bookkeeping in a database to be correct if you kill a process while manipulating that database.

No offence meant.

Hello Slarti76,

please unterstand, that I'm a user, not a programmer. I do not know, what a App does in the background. The tracks were already deleted before I went one level back in the file system. There I saw the mismatch and maybe 10 seconds afterwards Android showed me the message:

You cannot view this attachment.

I ignored it maybe twenty times before I stopped Locus.

Best regards, Dieter

Ich habe das in einem Samsung Forum gefunden.
Werde ich morgen probieren, vielleicht hilft es ja.

Hi Locus Team!

I just deleted three larger GPX from the folder "Gesamtstrecken". Now there a four Trails. Going one step back in the folder Hierarchie, the amount of files in the folder "Gesamtstrecken" is still seven.

Because the trails are really large, Android did ask me if I want to stop Locus or just wait. I did stop and restarted Locus.

I also had an "System UI" error today while using Locus. Android gui restartet afterwards.

Let me know if I can provide more infos etc.

Android 14
Locus 4.31.3.12

PS: The "0/4 Files in Folder" label has an x (2. screenshot). I just clicked it and now the label is gone ( 3. and 4. screenshot).

Troubles & Questions / Locus Map Add On for Tizen OS ...
Last post by Flore88 - Yesterday at 22:22:53
Hi all,
does anybody know where I can find the Locus Map add on for my Samsung Gear S3 Frontier (Tizen OS) since the Galaxy app store was closed for older models? Would be nice to get the apk from an alternative app store  or sources would be highly appreciated as well.

I was using the add on for many years but Samsung stopped the app store for old watches. Now the smartwatch is pretty much useless.

Thanks a lot!
Florian

Developers / I need help Locus Live Trackin...
Last post by xjhelp - Yesterday at 16:01:28
I am developing a real-time location tracking website that works with Locus Map. The current workflow is as follows: the Locus Map app periodically sends user location data (including longitude, latitude, altitude, nickname, etc.) to my server, and the server is required to return a response upon receiving this data.

I have tested responses in both KML and GPX formats, and Locus Map can parse and display them on the map without any issues. However, I now wish to use JSON format for the server's response, and I am unsure whether Locus Map supports directly parsing JSON-formatted response data.

If it is supported, what specific fields are required in the JSON response? Is there any official documentation or example available for reference?

I'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.

S24  -  Android 16 – LOCUS 3.70.17

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 - November 17, 2025, 17:15:50
I 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.
