Do not install! Deletes all files! I used the free version for a while now and really like the app, the available maps and most functionalities. Since I used it for a few recordings in my last holiday, I thought: let's do them a favor and buy the pro version. I really used it a lot, think you should support people in their work and was also keen to see what other features would be available. Now the new Pro version wrote new folders over the existing app and deleted all my recordings.

Hi Simon, please, contact our support team at help.locusmap.eu and tell us more about your previous settings. Was your LM Free installed on the SD card or internal memory? Or did you use any combination? Please send screenshots. We'll be happy to help. Michal, Locus team

Track recording is reliable, and it shows useful statistics whilst I am walking or cycling. I usually use it with either the OpenStreetMap classic map or OpenCycleMap. I can upload my tracks to Strava and OpenStreetMap, and I can add notes to OSM. Good value for money. Adding geotagged notes (for use with editing OpenStreetMap) is more complicated than with Osmtracker. I tried Locus Maps 4 but it didn't meet my needs, so came back to 3 Classic

I don't know which update broke it, but automated backups have stopped working. Update - backups work after going through settings and re-granting access to storage. This was a system change a few versions of Android back. But it's downright foolish the app doesn't tell you what went wrong (or how to fix it) AND how it deleted all my old data back then.
