 Recently we discovered an application that can lock Locus (and other apps of your choice) in your device RAM. It's called **Memory Locker** and is available at **[[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartprojects.MemoryLocker|Google Play Store]]**. We have tested only a few devices with this app and it looks promising. However, as this is a third party app, we have no responsibility for nor influence on the app performance.
 ==== GPS Locker ====
-This app is able to lock system GPS ON so that the operation system can not kill it - we recommend in cases Locus loses GPS signal in standby mode and none of previously mentioned methods did not help. The app is available at **[[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.silentlexx.gpslock|Google Play Store >>]]**
