Hi Erwin,


map and navigation service are not the same thing. Maps are independent on navigation services (engines). Locus uses navigation services of third party providers - some of them work online, like MapQuest that you used, some of them work offline, like BRouter. If you want to be navigated offline, download BRouter (can be found on GPlay) and particular navigation data pack and select BRouter in Locus navigation source settings. More info in manual: http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:settings

I have downloaded BRouter, now i have to find out how i can use it with c:geo for geocaching.

in c:geo i use Locus for locating the cache, so with BRouter i want to navigate from me position to the geocache.  

maybe you know how i have to do this ?

Thanks.

Hello Michal,

C:geo puts the coordinates of the cache directly on the Locus map, then i want to navigate from my position to the coordinates when i’m offline. I downloaded BRouter but i don’t know how it works. Users guide for Locus is very big and complex.

Erwin,

before you go through the forum thread given by @balloni55 (thanks @balloni55!) which is quite advanced, read this simple article from our blog: http://www.locusmap.eu/locus-map-can-navigate-offline/.

As for c:geo - if you are a Premium Geocaching member, you don't have to use the app for finding geocaches - you can search and store them directly in Locus via Geocaching4Locus add-on. More about importing caches to Locus here: http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:geocaching:import

Hoi Erwin,

Kan je vertellen wat jou geholpen heeft? Was dat het laatste bericht van Michal Stupka?
