After many years, mainly thanks to the strong push from motorcycle users on the help desk (and my own big curiosity about how this may work), I've decided to create support for Android Auto systems (not Automotive for now).

Firstly, it works and with some tweaks, I believe it will be usable!

Secondly, the whole system is really limited, and it's usually quite hard to find out, how something may be done. So be aware, that many ideas you will have simply can't be implemented for technical reasons.

How to test it: simply update the latest Locus Map 4 version with the APK file from our Google Drive directory ("auto" subdirectory). Locus Map should then appear on your car/motorcycle dashboard.

Warning: it is really an Alpha version that needs a lot of field testing. I sit more on the bike than car, so your help is needed, thanks!
