Hallo,
ich bin am Verzweifeln, entlang mit Locus Webplaner erstellter gpx-Routen zu navigieren MIT Sprachanweisungen.

Ich mach dies schon lange mehrmals im Jahr, aber in letzter Zeit funktioniert dies nur in 2 von 10 Fällen richtig.

Locus Doku:
https://docs.locusmap.app/de/doku.php/manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:point-to-point

Ich höre die Ansage "Zielführung wird gestartet", der angezeigte Ort wandert mit dem Fahren mit, aber es kommen keine Sprachanweisungen und damit funktioniert das Abschalten des Displays bis zu nächsten Anweisung nicht (Stromverbrauch).
Wie schon geschrieben, ab und zu funktioniert alles.

Stimmt es, das der Locus Webplaner am PC Fahrtanweisungen erstellt?
Im Winter mit Handschuhen will ich nach dem Losfahren nicht dauernd stehen bleiben müssen, um den Fehler zu finden oder Testfahrten machen.

Eine Simulationsfahrt daheim gibt es scheinbar nicht :-(

- Der komplette OAM-Hintergrund für ZL 8 und höher ist jetzt aus Christians Januar-2026-OAM-Vektorkarten generiert.
- Während immer mehr (100/200km) dominante Gipfel OSM-Einträge bekommen, musste auch der Algorithmus für die fehlenden Gipfel korrigiert und optimiert werden. Insbesondere musste das initiale Raster deutlich verfeinert werden. Nun, nach Monaten der Berechnung, sind die Ergebnisse verfügbar in den Welt- und regionalen Karten, mit mehr als 200 zusätzlichen Gipfeln mit 100 bzw. 200 km Dominanz, welche in OSM fehlen.
- Dank Igor Brejc's Hilfe zu Maperitive (er ist der Entwickler) sind jetzt die abgeschnittenen oder fehlenden Namen Geschichte; zunächst umgesetzt für Haupt- und andere Städte und Siedlungen.
- Die zwei ZL12-Asien-Karten erstrecken sich jetzt bis 60 Nord, und schließen damit wichtige Städte in Sibirien und die Kamtschatka-Halbinsel ein.

@Andrew Heard
Unfortunately, not all apps were able to open the track with a single "Share" command. Some of them need a slightly different "Open" command, so I had to add a second button here (for example Garmin Connect app). Error ... aren't you still using the Locus Classic version? Can't this error be from the old Classic?

ah I see - the full meaning "open in another app" - I understand its purpose now. Old Classic? I've been using LM4 Gold (as per my signature at bottom of post) since day #0. Huf. But still the orange toast message(s) - and appears to be 1 toast on top of the other if you look closely. Toast sandwich.

I'm glad I'm using an older version on my main device. On that one, the "Save" button still pops up and isn't covered by the keyboard.
This should be fixed as soon as possible in the current version.

@Manuel
may you please post me a screenshot of these problematic screens? Thanks.

1st is the screen for a new note.
2nd the same scrolled down just for reference (IMHO a lot of blank space for the attachment placeholder and the address. Who even enters that on GPS coded notes?)
3rd one shows me editing a title. Keyboard is on the bottom as it is default and the case for likely most users. The save or cancel button is not visible. I think they were on the bottom of the visible form before, but not on the absolute bottom of the screen under the keyboard.
This means, I cannot just enter a title and save as I did before dozens of times per tour to keep notes for mapping.
4th one shows the same screen, but the form scrolled all the way to the bottom. Note that the save (or cancel) button is still not visible. It is fixed in position under the keyboard.

Not shown: I have to close the keyboard to be able to click the save button.

And like I said, it is the same behavior when saving routes. And probably other forms.

The same thing happens when saving a recording. When I type the title, the keyboard covers the save button.

Troubles & Questions / Transferring to a new smartpho...

Last post by balloni55 - Yesterday at 19:15:47

Hello menion,
I have a new smartphone,'VIVO X 200FE' with Android 16.
The transfer from the Xcover4S worked well so far.

The new device no longer has extSD, so I installed Locus completely on
storage/emulated/0/Android/media.

Now I have two questions:
1. Does it still make sense/is it still necessary to use the AFA version? If not, can I simply install the normal apk with the next update?
2. I have many POIs with images where the path information no longer matches. How can I solve this problem?

Last post by bm.ffb - Yesterday at 18:22:30

Several years ago I posted a link to my project describing the generation of mapsforge maps on a "normal" Windows PC. I have now completely re-worked my Windows batch-script and added several additional steps in the map generation.
The result will be a map comparable to an OpenAndroMaps map, containing some additional features.
My script, together with a detailed description and a lot of learnings, can be found here (in German, but the script itself and all internal comments are in Englisch):

2) The maps are from 6/12/2025.
3) There is no other map in the device.
4) map theme from Lomap
