Presets


Available without limits with Premium

Locus Map is a very universal app - it can be set for many various activities, and not only the leisure time ones - it can also help professionals collect geo data or locate targets for rescue squads. This versatility and a vast range of features, however, has its drawbacks - using Locus for more activities means a lot of re-setting. Speaking of adjustments to your screen layout, changing the type of navigation recalculation, switching vector map themes, etc.

About

A Preset is a way of reconfiguring the whole app with just one tap. Technically, it consists of a set of app settings and configurations that can be loaded in one batch. Each Preset can be customized in detail and Premium users can set an unlimited number of Presets.

Initial setup

Activating a preset

  • open Presets
  • tap the selected Preset
  • the app re-configures according to the set of preferences in the Preset

Editing presets

A newly installed Locus Map contains just one preset called Default. To display its contents, tap Edit from the action menu:

If you want to add more settings options to the preset tap to get to the preset settings selection menu:

  • - setting is added to the preset switch box
  • - setting is NOT added to the preset switch box
  • going back from the menu confirms your selection

Presets do not contain all the settings options Locus offers. There are only the most used preferences that resulted from a user survey.
