Backup to Onedrive doesn't work

I setup backup to OneDrive, pushing hitting "Back up all" button, message "Process successfull" appears, however no file appears on OneDrive, if I choose option "share" backup, I see zip file been attached to the e-mail, but nothing sent. Same with Dropbox account.

Hello,

if you perform manually "backup all" the file is stored locally only. To the cloud service is sent files from the automatic backup and there you can set the repetition, but the exact time is fully in Android's control.

Please, go to the Locus/backup folder and check if the file is created here. If so you can upload it to the cloud manually.

I test the sharing from the info-box and everything worked for me. Please check, if the file doesn't exceeded the size allowed by your email provider.

Hello (ahoj :-))Zdenek, thanks a lot, I was not aware. Files are in the backup folder as you mentioned. As I had an issue with automatic backup (last was done two months ago), I started to investigate. Now it is clear.
Just a question - the backup file is too small to cover maps - do I understand well, that backup file covers setting and some licence information, so in case of recovery, maps are downloaded from your servers?

Hello (též ahoj),

backup doesn't contain any maps. You can almost all of the maps download as many times as you need (in the purchased version), so there is no need to backup them. Only a few maps (Shocart e.g.) could be downloaded just once. It is always mentioned in the description. These maps we recommend to backup manually.

The maps are not a part of the backup, because tha amount of data (especially with versioning) will be huge.
