Hi,

normally I connect my computer (Win11) to my phone (Pixel 6 Pro) via
USB port. Afterwards I have access to the folder
'Android/data/menion.android.locus.pro' and are able to copy
tracks and maps to the subfolders.
Since the last updates (either Android 14 or Locus 3.70.4) the folder
'menion.android.locus.pro' is not shown anymore in Android/data.

So far I tried:
- deinstallation of Locus, new installation
- switched on Android developer functions with USB debugging


For all with similar problems:
Meanwhile I did some more research.
It looks like the January update from google crash the Pixel phones.
Some phones are completly broken, on some phones the apps are
not allowed to access their own data directories. Access rights for
the user disappeared, ....
Unluckily on my phone the only affected directory was the menion one :(

After all, I've to wait for Googles correction.
Sorry for the post
same result.

Any help would be great.

Hello,
I've read about this issue (a problematic patch). Unfortunately to my Pixel 5, seems that even these minor patches are not supplied, so can't confirm.

There is no logical reason, why (only) Locus Classic should be affected by this and I have no idea how to help here for now, sorry.

I have exactly the same problem on a new Samsung phone with Android 14.
With FileManager+ on my phone I can see the folder and enter it but on my PC (Win 11 Pro) it's not visible.
Putting new Freizeitkarte maps in the correct location was impossible, I had to move them later inside my phone with FileManager+.

For your information:

I installed Locus Map 4 and got no problems to
access 'Android/data/menion.android.locus' and all
of its subdirectories via pc <-> USB connection

Good news: suddenly the folder Android/data/menion.android.locus.pro is visible and accessible in Windows 11 again.
