V4 import and parallel usage with old version

Wolfgang shared this question 3 years ago

Hi,


first of all many thanks for the new v4 version! Great job!


I just have two questions about the new version.


1: may I use the old Pro version and the new gold version on the same device before I later switch completely to the new version?


2: are old settings imported to the new version or do I have to setup all things from scratch?


Thanks, Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang :)


I did see this article, but I did not find any answer to both of my questions.


Cheers, Wolfgang

Hello Wolfgang,

1. You can use Locus Map Pro on the same device together with the new LM4.

2. It is necessary to manually back up the settings via "Backup manager"> and restore the settings from the created backup on the other.

Have a nice day

Hi Andrea,

that sounds great 🙂

That means there are totally different paths for the old and the new app - if they are setup with default settings?

I guess I can do a full backup and not only the settings. I won't loose bought maps and all of my waypoints.

Thanks Wolfgang

Hello Wolfgang,

No, during a new installation, the default paths are the same for both applications.

Always in internal memory> "Locus" directory

Only back up your settings if you have both applications installed in the same directory.

Have a nice day
