Hi
I often use Locus when travelling on vehicules I do not drive, for example trains, just to know where I am. In the meantime I use my tablet for other purposes, by reducing Locus. Of course when I go back to Locus I don't like to wait for the "fix" of the GPS to have my position, this can be long. So that I use the settings of locus to make it keeping the GPS working when Locus is minimized. This worked perfectly well with the 1.3 version, but not on the  version  1.4. This version stops the GPS regardless the settings when it is minimized.
The only workaround seems to start a task such as the POI alerting. In this case, Locus keeps the GPS active when it is minimized. Anyway, it would be more convenient if the settings keeping the GPS active when Locus is minimized worked properly, like in  version 1.3
Best regards and thanks for this extremely useful software
