 ==== Drawbacks ====
   * **All app data is deleted upon uninstall** - the majority of devices show a warning prompt with the option to retain the app data in the storage. But especially Chinese products erase the data without an option of restoring.

+  * **No use of other apps data** - it is no longer allowed to share one common directory between Locus Map Classic and Locus Map 4.
-  * **Limited custom sub-directories** - the app can read/write **maps** only in its private directory or in ///Android/media/// directory. Elevation data can be placed only in the app's private directory. Only backup files can be stored elsewhere. Also, custom directories with **geotagged photos** are not supported - Locus can read from the **default system media directory** only.
