Unused directories on the SD card
For the directories 'backup/', 'maps/' and 'mapsVector/' I have the custom choice '/storage/3032-3232/Android/media/menion.android.locus.pro/Locus/', which is Locus's offered directory on the SD card, set for backups and all my cards.
Now the file explorer shows me the directory '/storage/3032-3232/Android/media/menion.android.locus.pro/' with the content of 3 elements. These are the directories 'Locus/' with 3 elements, 'maps/' and 'mapsVector/' with 0 elements each.
In the 'Locus/' directory, the 3 elements correspond to the 'backup/', 'maps/' and 'mapsVector/' directories.
The two empty directories 'maps/' and 'mapsVector/' under '/storage/3032-3232/Android/media/menion.android.locus.pro/' are not used and if I remove them Locus creates them again immediately.
I do wonder about this too. It is rather confusing. So there is room for improvement anyway.

Why is nothing being done about this. Throwing out a few lines of code isn't really a big deal. Even after the second update nothing happened. Whenever I remove the two nonsensical folders, they are recreated on the next reboot.

Hello Konrad,
because I had not yet time to test and fix this issue. It is not critical, just a little obtrusive. Sorry.

Hello Konrad,
you've discovered an issue, not an intent, thanks! Directory "Locus" in the private "Android/data" directory exists only for historical reasons, but it is useless. So in the "Android/media", I did it properly and subdirectories are directly in the "menion.android..." directory. But there is an issue and custom sub-directories are still placed under "Locus" directory. Uff, complicated to explain, anyway:
Solution for you?
Thanks

Hello Menion!
No problem.
I already ignore these directories and don't need to move anything with the next version. My maps are on the SD card in "Android/media/menion.../maps" etc.
I only found the two maps directories above the "/menion" folder to be annoying.
Thank you for the completion!
