Locus Map / Re: Re: [APP] - version 4.34.+...
Last post by Andrew Heard - May 27, 2026, 05:03:23
after reading the latest news @ https://www.locusmap.app/search-chart-android-auto/ I have some comments I think more appropriate here than at the end of the post
1) Why are some location sources disabled even when I have Wifi enabled?

2) As previously discussed a few times with @tapio et.al., tapping the Map icon for a just-saved track recording does not center the map on that point, just the middle of the whole track

Troubles & Questions / Re: Locus Classic and Dropbox
Last post by stuffandnonsense - May 26, 2026, 23:20:19
Is this issue back again? Backup hasn't been working for me for some time. I upgraded to 3.70.19, but still get stuck in an authorisation loop when trying to re-link Dropbox.

Hi Menion

Thanks for your reply.
Sad to hear this, since the watch still works perfectly fine and the battery runtime is still much better than the newer WearOS successors.
But of course, I can understand your decision.

Cheers

[CZ&SK] - diskuze o Locusu / Problém s trasama?
Last post by leschek - May 26, 2026, 18:47:48
Během pokusu o přenesení Locusu ze starého telefonu Huawei Mate 20 pro na nový Oppo x9 ultra jsem se pokusil postupovat podle tohoto návodu: https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php/manual:faq:move_to_new_phone a zjistil, že mám pravděpodobně problém se dvěma zaznamenanýma trasama (z několika stovek).

Podařilo se mi ty pravděpodobně špatné trasy z nichž o jednu bych úplně nechtěl přijít (je z dovolené) izolovat a přesunout je do složky "špatné trasy".

Po přesunutí špatné trasy z původní složky s ostatníma trasama do složky "špatné trasy" se u té původní složky zobrazuje nesprávný počet zobrazených tras (ikona oko).

Při pokusu o zobrazení informací o trase Locus spadne.

Zkoušel jsem trasy zazálohovat přes rozhraní Locusu, ale nedaří se - po exportu soubory tras nenajdu přestože se zobrazí, že export proběhl úspěšně. Pak taky Locus spadne a až do restartu telefonu zobrazuje při pokusu o jeho spuštění hlášku "Bohužel, tohle nyní nefunguje" a pod tím "code: 11556".

Zdá se, že ostatní trasy jsem schopen exportovat (ale nevím, jestli je lepší to udělat v jednom souboru nebo každou zvlášť).

Pokud někdo dokáže poradit, tak by mě zajímalo, jak zachránit data z Locusu na starém telefonu s tím, že bych chtěl nějak zachránit i tu trasu z dovolené.

[DE] - deutschsprachiger Forumsbereich / Re: Problem Import GPX

UPDATE:

War soeben mit drei unterschiedlichen Geräten mit unterschiedlichen Android- und Locusversionen unterwegs. Bei allen Geräten der gleiche Fehler.
Vorab: Das der Track "weg" war lagt daran, dass er einfach nur aus dem sichtbaren Bereich wanderte.
Aber offensichtlich gibt es ein Problem mit der automatischen Neuberechnung (alle Geräte verwenden BRouter V1.7.9). Die Abweichung von der Route wird zwar korrekt erkannt und auch signalisiert, aber dem folgen keine neuen Navigationsanweisungen. Verlasse ich die Route und verschiebe die Karte manuell, ist im Track am weißen Richtungspfeil zu sehen, dass ich eigentlich umkehren sollte. Im Navigationsfeld oben links wird jedoch weiterhin immer nur das Fragezeichen angezeigt und gesprochenen Navigationsanweisungen gibt's auch keine mehr. So kann man kilometerweit in die entgegengesetzte Richtung fahren, so wie ich letztes Wochenende, ohne dass ein "In 150m wenden" o.ä. zu hören wäre.   

Update 28.05.2026
Ich bin mir inzwischen ziemlich sicher, dass es sich um ein Problem der Locusversionen V3.70.xx handelt.
Nicht einmal auf einer mit dem internen Routenplaner erstellten Route mit Zwischenzielen erfolgt bei Abweichung vom Track eine Navigation zum nächsten Zwischenziel.
An BRouter liegt es nicht, da bin ich zurückgegangen bis zur V1.7.5 bei der ich mir sicher bin, dass 2024 noch alles wunderbar funktionierte.
Ich frage mich inzwischen, ob dieser gravierende Bug nicht vielleicht den Umstieg auf V4 "erleichtern" soll.

iOS version / Re: Geocaching
Last post by Jan Čapek - May 26, 2026, 10:27:58
Hi Marco, sorry for late reply!  ::)

Help us to shape our geocaching efforts within the app. There are some basics already like showing some extended Geocaching data for imported waypoints to Library.

What are you missing most? What to implement for you to be suitable client to be used while geocaching? How are you used to load/prepare caches for your trip?

Thanks!

iOS version / Re: Roadmap for iOS Version?
Last post by Jan Čapek - May 26, 2026, 10:23:19
Hi, sorry for late reply. You can see here what is now around the corner: https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=9627.0

Then our current plan for next month(s) is to finally verify feasibility of importing mbtiles maps (and implement it if possible) and then implement live-tracking funckionality.

We are following our long-term strategy, but I don't want to provide further plans now. Of course on the horizon are also obvious missing features like navigation etc.

iOS version / version 1.8.0
Last post by Jan Čapek - May 26, 2026, 10:11:17
Hi,
Locus Map LITE v1.8.0 brings following:

1) early version of in-app route planner.
You can now plan your route within the app by selecting route "shaping points" from LoPoints, user waypoints or simply anywhere on the map and online router will calculate route for you  based on what activity have you choose. By unchecking "apply to entire route" toggle, you can already plan independent segments of the route by different routing profiles if you wish to do so. We prioritized planning via map for first planner version. If you are familiar with planner on our Android version, you shouldn't have issue to learn how to control it. Otherwise let us know how hard or intuitive it is for first comers! Route can then be shared by the URL link or saved to your Library.
There are of course lots of missing pieces which we want to bring in near future. First will be ability to drag&drop shaping points on the map so you don't need to delete part of the route and recreate it. This is for sure missing the most on the this first version. Next would be ability to fully plan within itinerary panel and later we will work also on advanced features like custom parameters for route profiles, ability to add "via points", path surfaces etc..

2) iPad UX redesign - "bottom sheets" are now opened on the side of the screen so you will not loose your focus on the map. Great for planning on big screen!

3) you can now search coordinates completely offline and the app should be able to parse all mostly used formats.

1.8.0 Version is currently released in the BETA group and soon published to AppStore for everyone. We would love to hear your experience with it!

Quote from: Andrew Heard on May 26, 2026, 09:10:15@menion Last week I reported that under "unknown circumstances" the track chart would zoom instead of pan, while using a single finger drag. I now have a screen video of it. Maybe it requires the X-axis to be time instead of distance, or to have a gap/ pause in the recording? In the video I tap +/zoom once, then single tap-drag to try to pan but you can clearly see it zoom instead. The tap position is faintly visible.

Yeah, I can confirm that and also reported sth similar recently: The charts don't seem to be able to move consistently over pauses/gaps - instead when dragging, for a while the zoom changes, until the end of the gap is reached and the chart snaps to there. I don't see any good reason why the gaps should have any effect on dragging at all, so to me this is a bug.
