FAQ


Is Locus Map also available on iOS?

Yes, it is. But it doesn't have the same amount of features as the Android versions. Yet.

It is called Locus Map LITE and you can download it from the Apple AppStore. All information about the app and its current features is on the Locus Map LITE website.

The app is in continuous development and we'll keep adding features to it until it is mostly as capable as the Android version.

What can you do with the Lite version now?

(status in July/2024)

Is there any Beta testing program?

Beta testing of the iOS version has been temporarily suspended.

As is mentioned in the beginning the app is still developed and new versions are produced. This includes a range of pre-production Beta versions that have to be tested. If you wish to participate in this testing, please do the following:

Once you're accepted into the BETA, you'll be able to download or update the app using “TestFlight,” which can be found on the Apple App Store.

How do I plan routes for the iOS app?

On the Locus Web Planner. If you save the route, it will sync to the mobile app with Premium Gold. Otherwise, select GPX export on the web and import the file into the mobile app.

Can I import a GPX route into the application?

Yes. Send the GPX file to your device and choose to open it in the Locus Map Lite app. Or open the app, select your desired My Library folder, click the Import button, and select the file on your device.

Are all Premium Gold features the same on iOS and Android?

No, currently only cloud sync and satellite maps are available on the iOS version. More features will be added soon.

In the meantime, you can take advantage of our introductory offer for Premium Gold with a 50% discount for the first year, which is valid until 31.8.2024 and may be extended.

Does the app use offline maps?

Not yet, we’re still working on it – we hope to add offline maps soon. For now, you need to be online to see the map.

Will there be a full Locus Map for iOS? When will the features I miss be available?

Our long-term plan is to expand Locus Map Lite to a similar feature set as our full Locus Map on Android, which is also constantly developed. When that will happen is hard to say even for us. Until then we will keep “Lite” in the name for differentiation.

In the meantime, you can help us to shape our development priorities by providing feedback.

How can I help you add missing or other desired features to the application?

Our resources are not unlimited, so we have to set priorities. You can help us by giving us feedback about the app.

Finally, we can only afford to develop our apps because of our Premium users. So subscribing to Premium Gold is the thing that allows us to go faster and further.

Can I use my Premium on both iOS and Android platforms?

Yes, the plan is linked to your Locus account, which is the same for iOS, Android and web. Please note that the features are not the same on these platforms.

Is Premium Silver available for iOS?

No, already implemented features that are part of Premium Silver in the Android version are temporarily free in the iOS app.

How do I cancel my subscription?

Either from Locus Map > My Premium or from the Apple Store.

You can cancel it at any time.

Even if you cancel your subscription, you will still be able to use the features until the end of your subscription period.

If you don’t cancel, your subscription will automatically renew.
