Thank You …

Hi Tom,

1) no, both apps can run simultaneously
2) yes, you don’t have to stop using LM Pro ever
3) see point 1) – yes you can

1) Do I have to give up Locus Map Pro to start a subscription to Locus Map 4.4?

2) If Locus Map 4.4 (silver or gold) doesn’t work out for me … can I revert back to Locus Map Pro?

3) If I can keep Locus Map Pro, can I maintain both Locus Map Pro and Locus Map 4.4 on the same tablet/smart phone?

Thank you … Tom

Hi Holger,
we’ve been thinking about dozens of ways how to finance the development of Locus Map. We need to maintain its effectiveness, progressiveness and effort to reach goals we and our users put together. According to our surveys and calculations, the subscription-based production seems to be the most effective way how to maintain the course of our team. After half a year, though, it is too soon for the resolution assessment. Nevertheless, our users wished to enhance the app with a complex webserver infrastructure and cloud services. These, plus continuous development, maintenance, support and third-party services like GraphHopper, Google address search, DarkSky weather forecast, storage services etc. can’t be sustainably financed from single purchases any longer.

as a user from the first beginnings on I’m positively searching for a way to go to the new version without any kind of subscription. But as I, like some of your users, am strictly against subscriptions.. It just wanted to clarify this for me: There is no single-payment-version (it might be high, even around a hundred euros, as you really developed an App which definitely is worth quite a big summ) planned any more?
I definitely would buy it even if it would cost a big sum. A subscription on the other hand, would be no alternative for me.
So, the question:
Is there still a single-payment-version (gold/silver/…) planed?
A version without a subscription?

Thanks a lot! I really would appreciate to upgrade to the new version!

hi Erik,
managing the tracks and folders in the web library is still waiting for implementation as well as the import.

But this is a minor issue for me.

What I exspected from the gold subscription was a two-way-sync-process, meaning that I can group all my tracks (>500 in europe) in Folders (I already have on my PC) and sync them to the device.
What I found out yet was, that I can sync from the device to the cloud and export from the cloud but not import into the cloud – is there a plan to change this?
