Closing Locus while live tracking

Kimmo Huoman shared this idea 12 years ago
Completed

I`d be useful to get the same kind of close selection while live tracking when pressing the back button as you do when navigating etc.


In current implementation Locus just minimizes when pressing back during live tracking, it`d be useful to get the choice of minimizing, closing or canceling as you do with other functions.

Hello Kimmo Huoman


Is this really a big "problem" for you - or is this an "idea"?

I see this more as a problem, as it`s very easy to forget live tracking on and it eats battery fairly quick. Also it`s inconsistent behavior compared to other functions, which makes the problem even worse.

understand.


A simple warnig would help?


eg


"Live tracking service activ !"


Cancel | OK"

It`d be more consistent if it was just the same choice as for navigation etc.


"Do you really want to EXIT?


Active processes:


- Navigation


Cancel / Minimize / OK"

OK and Minimize was the same...


edit


ah


OK should stop live tracking / navigation / parking.... AND quit Locus


right?

Yeah, OK quits everything (as it does currently with at least navigation). Minimize minimizes and cancel cancels :P

Since Locus 2.18.0 exists improved "Closing dialog" that allows quickly close running services, that previously disabled ability to quickly kill whole Locus.
