Moving Locus to a new device or SD card


Question

I have purchased a new device/a new SD card. How am I supposed to move Locus into the new device and continue using all the data and settings?

Answer

It is necessary to backup all Locus Map data and settings:

  • Data - maps, points, tracks
  • Settings – your personally defined colors, function settings

To keep all data, please follow these instructions:

  • Make a full backup with the help of Backup > Backup all
  • Locus directory is located in Menu > Information > Locus

If you have new device:

  • Copy the entire Locus directory from the old device into the new one
  • Install the latest version of the Locus application from the Google Play into the new device

If you have a new SD Card

  • Copy the whole Locus directory from the old SD card to the new one
  • Start Locus
  • Use Backup function to restore all data
