BRouter profiles with route planner
Answered
Hi all,
Could you please give me guidance/update your documentation on how to include additional/new BRouter profiles which are stored in
/Hauptspeicher/Android/media/btools.routingapp/brouter/profiles2
to make them usable in Locus route planner?
Furthermore I was not able yet to identify a function to remove a profile again in Route Manager.
Thanks for your support

Choose another profile. In the overview there is the 3 point menu at the top. There you can choose which ones you want to see. New ones will be added below.

Hi Andreas,
copy the profile files (.brf) into Locus/router/profiles2 folder via a file browser and edit the profiles setup in Locus Map route planner. More at https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php?id=manual:faq:how_to_navigate_offline#profiles.

Hi Michal,
thanks for your reply.
As on my phone there was no "/Locus/router/profiles2" folder, I created it and copied the profiles in there. Unfortunately Locus still did not provide all the profiles I copied there, so I took a closer look at the Locus settings for the main directory. It actually still was configured as using a "Private folder in Android/data", which with my Pixel 8 Android 14 I was not able to access at all but where I assumed Locus took all the BRouter profile information from.
So I changed to "Private folder in Android/media" and copied/changed the BRouter profiles to "/Android/media/menion.android.locus/router/profiles2". From then on all these copied/changed BRouter profiles were presented and can be used in the profile sections of the route planner.
Hope this now is the correct way of setting up profiles for the BRouter routing engine. At least it works for me that way :-)
Maybe you can confirm and may I suggest then to amend the documentation at https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php?id=manual:faq:how_to_navigate_offline#profiles
Thanks for your support and your great product,
Andreas
