Make Locus Pro available in Amazon App Store (e.g. for Kindle Fire HD)

With Bluetooth GPS receivers like Garmin GLO or Qstarz BT-Q818 XT, it's perfectly possible to add GPS functionality to tablets without built-in GPS sensors, like Amazon's Kindle Fire.


I installed Locus Pro on my Kindle Fire HD when it was still possible to root the device. With one of the automatic firmware updates, the device got unrooted, but Locus Pro is still installed and works like a charm! :)


Unfortunately, in the Amazon App Store, only the free edition of Locus seems to be available.


Please add Locus Pro to the Amazon Store, so that I can keep my Locus Pro installation up-to-date.


Keep up the good work!

As I live in China, I cannot use the Google Play Store. I would appreciate to get the Pro Version via Amazon App Store!!

Hello Johaness, stoppe,


we are just uploading Locus Map Pro on Amazon Store.


First tests are positive and app seems to work correctly. Anyway seems that there is a problem with in-app purchases. So if anyone will try, I warn you - do no purchase LoCoins for now!


Hope there won't be any problems, feel free to contact me if any.
