Hi,

what exactly do you mean by this idea? Could you please describe it in more detail? I'd just like to remind you that Locus Map is primarily an app for hikers and bikers and features for automobiles (ergo electro mobiles) are not its main area of development.

Yes, there is a icoon for Auto and Bus but they are using high streets.

I like a 45km Auto icoon for routes that are only for 45km vehicles.

Could you please send a screenshot of the "auto" icon? Where does it occur exactly?

If You press blue cirkel left You can change the Bicycle icoon into Car.

A Popup is showing up like this.

OK, so you wish we added a routing profile for e-cars that are allowed to go no faster than 45 km/h?

Yes and including the settings.

Than you have an icoon for Locus Map that Not exist in other Navigators.

Have you tested to turn off highways and tolled roads? These are usually high-speed roads and by excluding them you can get what you need - a route for a slowly moving vehicle.

Yes I have tested and works Ok.

But if I use a Car for long routes and want to use Highways.

If I use a 45km Car for city routes and Not using Highways.

A separate icoon for Car and 45km Car with different setting I do not have to reset the settings

OK, so please try the following:

1) open the LoRouter profile selection and tap "ADD NEW":

b43c804e0c762f02003c8f2ecb24c61b 6059e0c28b4fa5b65210270704a59b66

2) change the icon, insert name and select categories for the new car profile. Tap "SET":

45d93caa86428a64003852d5dd8a03c7

3) your new car profile emerges in the selection:

b79731fdd3f9ec9631bfc620c92f9bb7

4) tap it to open its details. Uncheck the options for fast roads:

Close the box. Next time when you select this profile it will always prefer secondary and tertiary roads with slow speed limits.

If you don't like the symbol, you can also import your own symbols from the Internet to Locus.

This looks good.

I will test this.

It takes some time.

Thanks
