Locus Classic: Backup to other services

Michael shared this problem 6 hours ago

Hallo


I use Locus Classic 3.70.15 on a Pixel 8.

The automatic backup works great. It saves to /Android/data/mention...


I am using Nextcloud to back up important data from the phone.

Unfortunately apps other than the system file manager cannot access the backup location any more.


Other apps on this phone can directly save to installed cloud services.

Could that be added to this app?


Thanks

M

I haven't used LM3 for a long time. But as far as I know, the backup to the cloud is available.
For your information:
LM3 is only in maintenance mode and there are no improvements or new functions. And maintenance will also be discontinued at some point.
It is best to switch to Locus Map 4

Hi M,

the location for backup that you mention is not the best one for the reasons you experience.

As far as I recall, even LM3 can store its backups to any folder on the system, even ext.SD (which are not available on Pixels, however).

Try to change the backup target in the Locus settings to a location that your file manager and cloud client can access.

Then go from there with your cloud client replication.

Cheers

Michael
