Hi,
we know about this problem and we are solving it. Nevertheless, it is caused by a major failure in the map rendering engine provided by a third party and fixing it is very complicated.

Leider verschwinden in der Kartendarstellung immer wieder Ortsnamen, die ursprünglich angezeigt wurden. Oft sind in der Übersicht Namen nicht zu sehen, die dann bei irgend einem Zoom auftauchen, dafür verschwinden dan andere.

You can open the route (track) in route planner and fix it there with “routing assistance”

I’ve proposed it on the help desk here, even though it didn’t receive any votes…

Like, if I set a walking profile and locus gets a position a kilometer away after a few seconds, then after a few second would record a point in a waking range, then the intermediate point could be detected as a mistake and ignored.

Hi, this is probably caused by battery optimization of your device that switches off either GPS chip or the app itself. Exclude GPS and Locus from this optimization or turn the optimization off. More info: https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:faq:gps_lost_fix_android6

Pro) every 100 meters. How can I solve please? do I have to set something?
