When I tried to use my software to export a Route to Locus Map today I got an interesting behavior related to the update of Locus Map.
My application called sendTrack() and the result code returned was "true". But rather than seeing Locus Map start and my route displayed, control was returned immediately to my application.
Not seeing any error in my code (nothing changed from when it worked yesterday) I started the Locus Map application and see what appears to be an update notification screen (see attachment).
The behavior I would have expected is an exception being thrown reporting that an update of Locus Map is in progress OR I would have expected the application to start and show me the update screen. But NOT starting and NOT returning either a result of false or throwing an exception was an unexpected behavior and one that would most likely cause support tickets against my software.

I took the drastic action of downgrading to 3.50.1 and everything works again. I am speculating that there is something broken in the upgrade to 3.51.0.

Hello Bob,
so from your description, it sounds the problem was "only" because of the missing start of the application after an update? Once you fully started the new updated 3.51.0 version, all future calls worked correctly?

Sorry Menion.
I was confusing with my mention of downgrading. As long as 3.51.0 is installed my attempts to send routes using Intents does not work. The Locus Map Pro application does start but there is popup asking to Import the route that was sent and there is no evidence that Locus Map Pro received the data (nothing is displayed and nothing appears in any sub-menus indicating that any route is in progress.).

Hello Bob,
ah, thanks. Seems that something had to change in the recent Google support library. I've fixed it anyway it will need a new 3.51.2 version. Unfortunately, I can't say how long this will take as Google is currently blocking our updates.
