Dear Locusmap team,
I would like to use on my iPhone the slope maps kindly available on this website.

According to the "Compatibilità" chapter, the mbtiles format works fine on (among other apps) Locus.

But after placing a mbtiles file on my "Files" app of my iPhone (i.e. on my iCloud Drive), selecting it and "Share", Locus is not in the list of apps which can import this file, contrary to e.g. EasyTrails LT, Kompass, Swiss Pro Map, WeTrek, TopoGPS, etc.).
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, Locus Map on iOS doesn't yet support set of features of its Android sibling. And that includes compatibility with 3rd party maps. We are working hard to clear more pressing priorities on this platform before we will focus on this topic. Locus Map was always about freedom in map selections and we want to keep this true even on iOS. But time wise, I don't expect any progress in this in first half of this year. So please stay tuned and keep your fingers crossed!
