iOS version / Re: Locus Map Lite 1.0 out in ...
Last post by Jan Čapek - Today at 18:04:06Hi, yes. We know it take longer than you and even us probably anticipated. We wanted to cover missing key features before the springtime initially. But in the end we chose harder path in order for the app to be better in the long-term. In case you don't loose patience with us, I am confident to say you will be using better product in the end because of this seemingly "empty" period.
But it definitely isn't empty for us, we are still rushing towards our goals with the app in the development!
1) We spent significant time to upgrade MyLibrary as it was mandatory due to technical reasons to keep compatibility with its huge scheduled redesign on backend servers, Android and Web. And it resulted in better experience with it even on iOS, although we know that wasn't highest priority for users.. But we had to do it anyway. By the way, in the process the iOS version have its first "win" against its older Android sibling - you can now browse your library while see the data immediately on the "live" map on same screen.
2) The next big thing are offline maps. We are in the finish line with the development here. In the process we built completely new vector online/offline LoMaps and offline POI dataset which will upgrade experience even compared to their current versions available on Android. During spring we will launch them on iOS and some time later even on remaining platforms.
3) The next quest will be to deliver 1.gen planner and navigation/guidance features. We will see if we manage to release them during summer, but we will do our best.
So yeah, for this year, the app will definitely keeps its Lite postfix in the name. But we definitely didn't slowed down in the team. Of course, more users willing to support us with activating Premium, bigger change we will be able to speed up the development with additional team member.

Themes - Vector maps / BERGFEX map (or theme)
Last post by chardo - Today at 17:10:30Hi all,
is there a theme identical to that of the BERGFEX map in terms of graphics and data displayed?
Or can it be downloaded or purchased to work with Locus Maps?
I find this map absolutely superb in its clarity.
Thank you very much.

Last post by Graf Geo - Today at 16:50:10Thanks for new beta 4.28.3.5 (with code 1175, perfect 😉).
The "Hold map centre" problem seems to have been fixed at first glance. 👍

Last post by Graf Geo - Today at 16:46:48Thanks, in the latest beta 4.26.3.5 it no longer seems to occur at first glance. I will test it in peace.
Have a nice weekend!

Troubles & Questions / Re: Info arrow points to remot...
Last post by Graf Geo - Today at 14:17:40Thanks for checking. The problem is still present in beta 4.26.3.3. It only happens when the location you are looking for appears as a LoPoint icon on the map (which is not always the case) and remains as a LoPoint icon when you swipe down the info on the point (this doesn't always happen either).
I have also just noticed that the icon is displayed larger than usual in this case.
Then simply select "clear map screen" and move the map. Voilá.
Here is a short screen video:

Nevertheless, I will of course check the next version to see if it still occurs.

Navigation & Guidance / Re: Android Auto support
Last post by Menion - Today at 13:10:29Hello Michael,
I've removed your private post on the help desk, so we should have this info public.
As my colleague Radim is intensively testing Android Auto on the motorcycle and is also using a hardware controller, I'm pushed from more directions. So yes, I plan to support hardware controllers in this way. Currently, I'm still stuck on publishing Android Auto support itself on Google Play, so this feature will have to wait for now.
The best is to add ideas to our help desk with "android auto" tags, like these: https://help.locusmap.eu/search/tag%3Aandroid+auto . It also allows more users to push on me with specific requests, which is always welcome
(and usually necessary).

Last post by Menion - Today at 13:04:45I'm unable to simulate it, btw. thanks for the report.
If possible, try it with a version I'll prepare today. There are some changes how internally bottom point panel is handled, so maybe it is already fixed as a side-effect, thanks!

Last post by Reisender - Today at 10:40:06Quote from: freischneider on Today at 09:14:24Das hört sich nach Android Einschränkungen an. Eventuell Locus und auch BRouter in Android Media installieren bzw. Verschieben. Da sollten Zugriffe möglich sein.
Alles schon passiert. Ich bekomme die BRouter Profile auch in Locus angezeigt. Wenn ich das Profil auswähle, speichert die Auswahl nicht. Bei den internen Profilen klappt es problemlos.

Last post by Menion - Today at 08:24:46Hmm thanks. It won't be related to the new change ... something different, will look at it.
And versions ... I usually do it this way, but meanwhile I'm still trying to publish Android Auto on the Google Play that force me to increase version with every attempt, sorry.
