Re: [APP] - version 4.33.+ ( 03/2026 )

Coooool     

New version with Android Auto is published and works great. 
I don't want to leave my car. 😁

I think Locus Map is one of the rare apps which are allowed to use Android Auto.👍

@T-mo & @0709
eh, it already exists. Just uncheck all "Line", "Pattern" and "Outline" values in the track style.

Indeed, this hack works. See pic.
By the way, the trackpoints inherit color and size from the Line, so to change those enable Line again, change color and width, then save and save and edit and disable Line.
After change the track is still highlighted and you might not immediately see the change. Deselect your track.

If you restart LM, the trackpoints (of your track with disabled Line) change to black, small size and outline style, which is surprising and inconsistent. Edit and save brings the old state back (color of track and filled dot of size px-width)

@Menion.
This presentation offers Garmin Mapsource_Basecamp out of the box, without any extra hassle.
A very useful display for tracks calculated by routers and so a relatively low trkpt density.
Insert an extra trkpt (without recalculating) and visually confirm the exact location on the map.
Announce this trkpt at the exact desired location by promoting it than into a via_trktp.
Add trkpt type "via", plus (for Locus) sym "pass_place". Add a trkpt name is optional.
- A nice simple and usefull feature to show and offer in the web planner ?

share a problematic route with me over "Share by link". Thank you.

Sure. Here's one that cannot be opened in the app: https://link.locusmap.app/t/1s9v2t

This one does not open in the online planner either.

I can't find my original help (suggestion) topic, so I'll say thanks to the WebPlanner developer(s) here - I note with pleasure after displaying a track from MyLibrary and then clicking the Back <- button, the scroll position in the list is now correctly restored rather than scrolling back to top of the list - a big time saving when the list is long, Thanks so much!

This link is working for me, both in app (latest beta) and in Web planner.

Interesting. I can open it now in the Web planner on my Windows computer. It did not want to open in the Android version of Firefox on my tablet yesterday.

In the app (latest release 4.33) it does not open, but when I choose "edit route" the app opens the empty planner.

The latest beta is 1207, while the release is 1210. I cannot downgrade to 1207 to test, unfortunately. But it seems to be related to this, i.e. any route made after January 2026 has this problem for me.

I made a s reen capture of the problem with certain routes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hBbUPK2HMt9LgnBQUrV8TfbWYN_fRXpB/view?usp=drivesdk

I also noted the problem is reported as a bug in the helpdesk twice (not by me)

[Menion]

Have you tried the latest version I've just published?

Locus Map 4.33.0.6 (1211)

Locus store is broken for me. It is stuck in the loading screen. And when I click on the profile button top right, locus crashes.

Regarding 4.33.0.6 (1211)
I've only installed it on my secondary device (S10) for now. First impressions:

Integrated Augmented Reality solution: Where can I find it, or how can I view it?

All "config.cfg" settings have been moved to the Expert settings:
Good, this makes it more consistent and clearer.

Fix: multiple tracks selected at once:
Confirmed.

 - Add: option to display waypoints (not the navigation orders) on the charts
  - Add: support for tapping on waypoints on the chart + highlight:
I've never used waypoints before. Now I've added some to a track as a test. When I highlight them, they appear very large on the map. How do I make them small again? I have to hide the track and show it again; then the icons become small again, but that can't be the solution, can it?
The waypoints don't appear on the charts, even though I've enabled the option.

add: zoom buttons on the screen with track charts:
Good!

Chg: improved line style to support "dotted style" (just dots on track points):
OK, that makes it clearer. Even if you don't immediately realise they're track points and not a normal dot pattern. Maybe "Trackpoints only" instead of "Dotted style only"?

I can't comment on the other changes (yet).

Same here.

Another serious bug:

The track editor causes Locus to crash.
