LM4 is a seperate App and can even coexist with LMP3.

There are the option 1) free 2) silver 3) gold subscriptions. Discount for year 1 if you have LMP3

Funny to pay again for the app...

I don't get it.


What's the discount you are talking about?

The discount is the price of the old Pro, hence you do not pay twice.

But you need to appreciate that a perpetual licence model only works to feed developers as long as there is massive growth possible. Once a market nears saturation, you die. Or switch to a subscription model.

Put yourself in the shoes of an App developer for a while ...

PS: you can stick with LMP3 which will get upgrades to cope with Android generations.

If you want innovation, that has a price tag - rightfully.

Thanks for clarification, Michael.

Makes sense.

How can I apply for this discount in case I want to migrate to v4?

Any special tutorial is needed to transfer bought maps and settings?

Using the EXACT SAME user account (mail address) when installing LM4, then subscribing should offer the discount automatically. Otherwise the help desk can clarify.

Hello Pawel,

Locus Map 4 is a new application independent of Locus Map Pro.

That is, a different name and not already marked Pro version.

In LM4 you can choose 3 uses:

- free basic features

- Premium Silver subscription features

- Premium Gold subscription features

For Pro version users we offer an exclusive discount of 100% on an annual Silver subscription and 50% on an annual Gold subscription.

To apply the discount, please proceed as follows:


- If you haven't already done so, sign in to the Locus Store at least once in your old Locus Map Pro

- install the new Locus Map

- go to the "Go Premium" page in the main menu, you will automatically be offered discounted tariffs.


You can delete Locus Map Pro or use both versions at the same time.

The best solution is to use the backup manager> backup settings in your Pro, then the backup manager in LM 4> restore.

Maps are backed up directly from the map menu, see this link https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:maps_offline#cloud_backup_of_maps on our website where everything is described in detail.

Have a nice day


@ Michael Bechtold thanks for the quick help
