I'm posting this here for now rather than on the helpdesk, as this version is still being further improved.

In version 4.35, a new dialogue box was introduced for selecting the folders from which geotagged media are displayed. The advantage of this is that you can now select any folder via the system file manager. However, it has the disadvantage – which I find very annoying – that I have to navigate through the folder structure every time to temporarily show or hide a specific folder. I have numerous folders whose images I sometimes only want to view briefly on the map so as not to overload it. Be it specific holidays, OSM documentation or whatever.

It would be nice if you could mark certain folders as favourites so that you could enable or disable them more quickly. These could appear on the first page of the folder structure; there's plenty of space there.
Alternatively, the 5–10 most recently selected folders could be displayed there, so that they can be selected or deselected more quickly.

Hi,

I hope everyone is alive in these hot days ...

New version has two big refactorings (Point screen & color picker), so I've also left the previous 4.35.0.3 in case of any serious problem.

Version 4.35.0.4 (8.8.2026)
   - add: color picker now offers palettes, a shade grid and exact RGB, HSV or hex values, with opacity and recent colors
   - chg: line style, dashboard and drawing screens now open the same color picker as the rest of the app
   - chg: point detail screen redesigned to match the track screen, with better use of space on large displays
   - chg: improved support for tablet layouts in geocache filter, device info and app updates dialogs
   - fix: geocache logs list could crash in rare cases when a GPX import left multiple logs without an ID
   - fix: map cursor stayed centered instead of the preset's shifted position when navigation started from a track opened above the map
   - fix: guide line, distance and time to target could freeze during guidance and navigation while you kept moving
   - fix: guidance to a point no longer announces arrival at the moment it starts, which also silenced the notification when you really arrived
   - fix: a downloaded item could occasionally fail to open or import right after the download finished
   - fix: (SILVER) live map no longer shows a repeating connection warning while panning the map without an internet connection (e.g. flight mode)
   - fix: track detail no longer shows outdated elevation gain/loss after recalculating a track's elevation
   - fix: (SILVER) crash when opening track detail from a dashboard after stopping recording
   - fix: crash when searching for a place from the live tracking chat
   - fix: hidden import dialog when importing geocaches over search
   - chg: map overlay photo/video folder picker now reopens in the last folder you browsed

I think, for better awareness about the color, the color field itself could be bigger. It's a bit small. IMO in that screen there should be a clickable, seemless transitions color palette with a full width preview.

am flying over for 6 weeks Czechia cycling from our Tasmanian winter next week; Czechia seems to be a little cooler next week but it will be a temperature shock ;-)

Thanks for the new beta!

Track Details Panel: the recalculation of elevation data is now updated immediately (see helpdesk).

Unfortunately, this does not apply to changes to the elevation threshold (slider). Here, you still need to close and reopen the panel to see the change...

"map overlay photo/video folder picker now reopens in the last folder you browsed": better, but favourites would still be useful. If you need a completely different folder, you still have to laboriously work your way through everything.

Yet another bug with LoPoint photos:

When I view a LoPoint photo from the user's gallery (whether it's mine or another user's) and click on the LoPoint icon, the panel with the detailed view opens.

Unfortunately, the map preview isn't displayed correctly. Depending on the map selected, a white or light blue background appears. This is because the coordinates 0°/0° are always passed, which is in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

See screenshot.

Note: The error occurs in the current beta version 4.35.0.4; it worked normally in the previous version 4.35.0.3.

[Andrew Heard]

probably not this latest beta, but has anyone noticed/ can confirm, once MyLibrary folders are sorted manually, it is no longer possible to sort by the auto methods eg. Name | Distance | Created? I find when I select "Name" none of the folder change order; or Reverse sorting; only manual makes any difference.

The current beta version 4.35.0.4 is quite buggy:

The global search doesn't work. No matter what I search for – for example, a town – nothing happens. The search window closes and the map stays where it was.

It works in version 4.35.0.3.

[Harwey]

4.35.0.4 a Ostatní POI.
Pokud rozkliknu v seznamu POI pro zobrazení detailu, tak Locus buď spadne, nebo se zobrazí černá obrazovka a pak se vrátí na mapu v místě, kde jsem byl při volání této funkce.
V 4.35.0.3 to bylo OK.

Works for me.

Hmm, that's odd. It doesn't work for me. Global search.
The map is centred on Berlin. I search for Sylt. Nothing happens. The red marker with the arrow doesn't appear either.
When I manually move the map to Sylt, I can see that the Sylt icon is highlighted. So the place has been found, but the map doesn't jump to it.
It works with the other search options (offline addresses, the old Google search, etc.).

Reistalled beta ...03, global search works.
Installed again ...04, doesn't work...

[Andrew Heard]

The current beta version 4.35.0.4 is quite buggy: The global search doesn't work

"quite buggy" - quite a strong term; but yes, I have similar experience - search (places & addresses) > known-place > displayed in list > tap > no change of map. On the other hand, search for a category instead of known-place appears to work.

Hi guys,
thanks for the reports. Some of them are already fixed. But unfortunately, I have another small family vacation till the Sunday, and the current code isn't stable enough to publish here. So sorry, new bug-fix version next week, not this one.

Have a nice day, and wish us in Central Europe at least a little rain ...
