Backup not compressed

Solved

Hi team,

just noticed that the backup on the S25 Ultra (Android 15) has the full size of the tracks.db (1.2 GB), hence is not compressed.

On the old S10 the database has the same size (LM 4 sync ...) but the zip file has a decent size of 600 MB, i.e. 50% of the size on the S25, for the same data.

Can you pls. advise?

TXs and cheers

Michael

Hi Michael,

is it automatic backup or manual backup? Does it happen regularly or did it happen only once?

Hi Michal, it's auto backup, and each one is not compressed at all.

Cheers

Until now, Locus Map has requested the system-default ZIP compression. Now it'll require the maximum compression. Please test it with the next app version.

Just installed new beta which included this improvement. However, there is no improvement in zip file size. Still 1.2 GB (manual backup)!

I did some selective manual backups to nail down the culprit: WEIRD finding:

- in the "icons" structure of the backup ZIP Locus does include an earlier 647 MB backup from March

No idea how that can happen!

Any idea on your side?

TXs and cheers

I removed that zip from the icons folder and it should be OK now.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
