Locus Map / Re: Re: [APP] - version 4.33.+...
Last post by Graf Geo - Today at 21:58:39Regarding 4.33.0.6 (1211)
I've only installed it on my secondary device (S10) for now. First impressions:
Integrated Augmented Reality solution: Where can I find it, or how can I view it?
All "config.cfg" settings have been moved to the Expert settings:
Good, this makes it more consistent and clearer.
Fix: multiple tracks selected at once:
Confirmed.
- Add: option to display waypoints (not the navigation orders) on the charts
- Add: support for tapping on waypoints on the chart + highlight:
I've never used waypoints before. Now I've added some to a track as a test. When I highlight them, they appear very large on the map. How do I make them small again? I have to hide the track and show it again; then the icons become small again, but that can't be the solution, can it?
The waypoints don't appear on the charts, even though I've enabled the option.
add: zoom buttons on the screen with track charts:
Good!
Chg: improved line style to support "dotted style" (just dots on track points):
OK, that makes it clearer. Even if you don't immediately realise they're track points and not a normal dot pattern.
I can't comment on the other changes (yet).

Some nice additional and risky versions before the holidays.
Locus store is broken for me. It is stuck in the loading screen. And when I click on the profile button top right, locus crashes.
You cannot view this attachment.

Last post by Blihi - Today at 19:44:26I made a s reen capture of the problem with certain routes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hBbUPK2HMt9LgnBQUrV8TfbWYN_fRXpB/view?usp=drivesdk
I also noted the problem is reported as a bug in the helpdesk twice (not by me)

Troubles & Questions / Geocaching4Locus error
Last post by JohnCNA - Today at 18:17:32If I want to update a list of geocaches, I open the list, select all and then select the tool icon.
"Update caches using Geocaching4Locus" returns the error message:
Cannot invoke setValue on a background thread
Exception: IllegalStateException
The G4L option works OK when a single geocache is opened and G4L is selected from the cache page.
The built-in function works OK with multiple geocaches selected in the list view.
But I miss the option to select multiple geocaches in a list and 'Download Logs' in order to check on the latest found/not found status.

[DE] - deutschsprachiger Forumsbereich / Re: Classic Version
Last post by ThomasD. - Today at 18:02:42AFA heißt All File Access. Unter neueren Android-Versionen hat nur die jeweilige App selbst Zugriff auf ihr eigenes Datenverzeichnis. Willst Du also z.B. eigene Karten, SRTM-Files oder Backups kopieren, klappt das nur mit der AFA, da externen Programmen (auch einem Dateimanager) der Zugriff verwehrt wird.

[DE] - deutschsprachiger Forumsbereich / Re: Classic Version
Last post by Spartaner - Today at 16:17:44Im Moment bin ich bei Locus Pro Classic 3.70.17. Schön, dass jetzt weitere Updates angeboten werden.
Aber welche Datei muss ich wählen? Ich glaube, ich habe das damals ganz normal über Google Play gekauft.
Muss ich ClassicGooglePlay oder ClassicGooglePlayAfa wählen?
Was heißt das Afa?
Nun habe ich mal die ClassicGooglePlay gewählt, runtergeladen und sehe, dass in der heruntergeladene Datei
3.70.19 (2026 02)-20260402T140639Z-1-001.zip
auch die 3 Varianten enthalten sind.
Muss ich da jetzt einfach die richtige apk installieren? Oder vorher umbenennen? Wird dann tatsächlich nur upgedatet und nicht neu installiert?

share a problematic route with me over "Share by link". Thank you.
Sure. Here's one that cannot be opened in the app: https://link.locusmap.app/t/1s9v2t
This one does not open in the online planner either.
This link is working for me, both in app (latest beta) and in Web planner.
Interesting. I can open it now in the Web planner on my Windows computer. It did not want to open in the Android version of Firefox on my tablet yesterday.
In the app (latest release 4.33) it does not open, but when I choose "edit route" the app opens the empty planner.
The latest beta is 1207, while the release is 1210. I cannot downgrade to 1207 to test, unfortunately. But it seems to be related to this, i.e. any route made after January 2026 has this problem for me.
