Restoring photos to stored points

I reinstalled Locus on a new phone Samsung Ultra 23 running Android 14. Lost my photo attachments to the stored points. New phone does not have an SD card but I found all the old photos in a backup file. I have tried to copy and paste them across to the new photo folder using Total Commander without success. Any suggestions?


Best regards

Hi Michal, thank you for your prompt reply. Given the number of users, your responsiveness is super impressive.

For a number of reasons the move to my new phone was a clean install. I imported my points and tracks OK but the point photos did not come across. I have located them in an old SD card backup but getting them into their new correct folder is proving challenging. It is not a train wreck if it is too difficult. The photos are geolocated so I can add them manually if necessary.

These points are all over Australia's Outback so if it means revisiting these locations to update the photos, that is OK with me😊.

Thank you for a fantastic App.

Best regards from Australia.
