  The track is saved in the selected folder of your Library and synced with the web library and other devices linked to your Locus account (if you have Premium Gold active).

Locus Map can record various activities outdoors. Each activity has its own track recording profile adjusted to the character of the activity. When you start track recording, your last used profile is selected.

When you want to record another activity, tap the chosen profile to open the selection. Tap another profile to Select it:

You can reconfigure every profile - change its name, activity, preferred storage folder, line style and other parameters. To do so, tap the settings button:
Then tap a selected profile to configure it:

You can insert your custom name for the profile.

Select from a vast array of activities in 6 categories:

Changing an activity changes only the icon. The method and accuracy of the track recording are defined by the parameters below.

Every profile can store the tracks in a different folder. Choose it in the Library.

Here, you can set the color and thickness of the track line on the map during recording.

Tapping the sample opens a dialog to set the color, thickness and other parameters of the saved track line:

There are two modes:

• Use style of the folder - the track inherits the style set for the folder in which it is saved
• Custom line style - besides the color and thickness, you can set a pattern, outline or color filling for closed objects (areas). Moreover, you can set a dynamic coloring mode of the line according to various criteria:
  

• Distance - sets the distance between recorded track points. The slower the movement, the shorter the distance should be.
• Time - sets the time period between recording two track points. The slower the movement, the longer the period should be.
• Trackpoint recording condition - defines the method of trackpoint recording based on the distance and time relation:
• Distance AND time - both intervals at once trigger trackpoint recording - smoother line but less accurate
• Distance OR time - one of the intervals triggers trackpoint recording - very accurate but a lot of track points are recorded
• Required location accuracy - sets the maximum acceptable range of GPS accuracy for recording tracks. More than 30 m is recommended.

When you are done with the editing, tap Save:

The basic profile selection only contains cycling, MTB and walking. If you want to add another activity, tap the + in the bottom left corner:
A new profile emerges in the selection. Tap it and change its parameters according to your needs. Don't forget to Save the new profile:
