Last post by janaton - May 11, 2026, 08:37:27Hi all,
Just a quick heads-up — line style editing for saved tracks in the Web Planner is currently being worked on. I've posted the details (what's coming in this iteration and what's not yet included) over on the help desk idea.

Hi Graf Geo,
thank you for testing!
When I take a photo for a POI there is this "Ping"-sound I guess since 4.33.0.11. If I have no net it is repeating every minute or so. Nothing changed at my phone beside the new beta.
I took a video from this but it is to large to upload it here.
Just to be precise, I'm talking about a photo for a LoPoint.
Just in this moment I'm writing this Locus did upload 5 photos I took in the afternoon and there was this annoying "Ping". (See second Screenshot - I even did set it to "lautlos" without any success.)
PS: I already took over 3000 LoPoint photos and never had this sound before.

Last post by WildWortWechsel - May 10, 2026, 19:22:25Dear Menion,
related to the "ping" sound after taking a photo for a POI: It is still there and it was so disturbing on my hike today. I had no net for several kilometes and the "ping" did not stop. I don't know why but even after switching the loudness to zero sometimes I heard this "ping". Because no other App was active I guess it came from Locus. Please make it possible to disable this "ping". I'm hiking to escape from noises around me (beside natural sounds).
I really like to support the locus community but for now I will stop taking POI/LoPoint photos.

Troubles & Questions / Re: Locus Map Gold is too dark
Last post by Wole - May 10, 2026, 17:16:30Thanks for the reply. In that case, I'll stick with Samsung. I'm actually considering getting an S25 Ultra as a successor to my S21 Ultra.

Troubles & Questions / Re: Locus Map Gold is too dark
Last post by Wolfgang - May 10, 2026, 16:26:58Yes, following multiple cycling trips: the display is no longer dimming, behaving exactly as it did in LM 3. If the 'Brightness limit profile' switch in the 'Display Assistant' app is reset to Standard, the dimming effect is restored, which also affects other apps such as Google Maps.

PS: You can find the 'Display Assistant' app as a standalone download in the Galaxy Store.

Last post by WildWortWechsel - May 09, 2026, 17:09:02Hi Menion,
2022 I hiked the Nord-Süd-Trail. I wanted to show it a friend, tipped on it and the new halo covered it completly. Maybe a smaller or a dynamic halo for longer tracks solve this?
Greetings!

Please, feel free to vote for it (give it more priority) and comment. We have new dedicated developer for web planner so hopefully we will manage to improve this in 2025.
Any update on this?
Looks like it's not moving?

Troubles & Questions / Re: 11556 and free version fea...
Last post by ColdAutumn - May 08, 2026, 23:35:17Thank you for your reply. I tried to upgrade to Locus 4 again via Locus Classic but failed. I encountered the same 11556 error, which makes the app completely unusable. It seems that I have to uninstall it and the app data can't be retained during uninstallation.
I have also upgraded to a Silver Premium.
I have a huge number of points and tracks, and I'm not sure if that's the reason.
Since Locus 4 will continue to be upgraded, while classic may stop being updated altogether, I estimate that this problem may persist for a long time. Furthermore, each user's data and custom directories may be completely different, especially since different mobile phones and system software versions are also different.
So, could you provide a guide on manually transferring this data? Because it's been used for so long, I don't even fully remember what data and personal settings I have; I only remember some of my most important data, which includes at least:
1, points
2, tracks
3, Calibrated maps etc, include all Map items( In Locus 4, it seems that Map items are no longer available?)
4, I also have my own online map configuration file, and I don't know if Locus 4 supports it directly.
5, I also downloaded global altitude data.
6, There are also several huge offline map files.
So, could you please provide a manual transfer guide? Many thanks.
btw, I found that OsmAnd can almost freely search local map data, a feature not supported in the classic version. Also, OsmAnd's local data processing seems to be very fast. I look forward to these details being improved in the future.
