I'm out, because I dont use Navigatior any more. I hope for the other users you can fix the Problem. Good luck

Map-Data direct in /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/net.osmand.plus/files And there are many subfolders with other files

PS: for me it sounds more like that OSMAnd follow the Android-Rules (because its using the Standardfolder) and MF NOT. So stop saying OSMAnd will be "behind the google policies"!

Google Pixel has no SD-Card. Full path for Osmand is /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/net.osmand.plus/files There is also a folder named /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.mapfactor.navigator/files But this folder is empty. I dont know where MF …

@tomas OSMAnd uses the Android-Standardfolder (... /Android/data/net.osmand.plus/). No problem to access with X-Plore. I dont know why MF uses an other folder.

No more access to data-folder??? (Android 11+12)

Good luck. I'm OsmAnd-fan now. Bye bye Navigator \m/

Thats you Standard-answer (second after "you have a faulty sd-card)? I think you dont understand what the Problem is

Who speaks about backupfolder? I create my own mca-files. But now I dont have access to "feed" navigator with it. Same with other individual files (Sound, Profiles and so on)

@Matthias: OSMAnd works fine for me. It uses full accessable Folders (with X-Plore)

No, I ask MF why they are not able within >3 months to switch to another ("unprotected") folder (like LocusMaps do, Like OSMAnd do, ...)

When MF cant say "its your fault" or "you have a faulty SD-card" then is silence here..... I dont like MF's attitude towards the users... I was a really big fan of navigator for many years. But app & support getting wor…

So, still no solution after 3 months. :-q But I've since familiarized myself with OSMand (which is not easy because it's very complex and extensive, but also a bit too convoluted). So far I have used Mapfactor for pure (car) navigation.…

I have since bought Osmand. The route calculation is painfully slow. But it has many advantages and functions and can (at least for me) replace Navigator and Locus maps. AND: access to all data-folders

A little hint: with the "stock-explorer" you can actually not get into the directory amdroid/data (what tomas said!) , but if you use the X-Plore you have access. I use this app for many years so it I dont recognized that. So, if Navigator…

So, I've now installed OSMAnd. "Lo and behold", they too manage to save all data in accessible directories. The problem with switching to a different software is always the "familiarization phase". But once you've done …

PS: And what could be the problem with "Download of the backup files not available" respectively "Cannot create a backup folder". GoogleDrive is currently the only chance for me to use MFN.

I don't think you understood the problem. What exactly should I do with the USB stick? OTG? OK, I can READ files from USB stick via OTG. And then? Where to PASTE in the files? The User of Android 11 + 12 has no write access to the directory u…

Google Pixel-Phones have no SD-card. Just an "built-in-memory". So this is NOT a solution

I have now tried to at least take over the "settings" from my old mobile phone (favorites, vehicle profiles, ...). I was able to create a backup in GoogleDrive with my old mobile phone (it can then also be selected for restoring on THIS mo…

I'm a big fan of Cyanogenmod/Lineage and used it for many years. But more and more apps dont "allow" rooted devices (DKB Banking/TAN2Go, Barclays App, Google Pay)... So I decided first time in my life for a stock-ROM.... PS: german &q…

Same problem here: MF stores data in folder /data/user/0/com.mapfactor.navigator/files/navigator/data Users dont have access here (Android 11+12 without root) So MF should A) change this, or B) provide within the navigator an internal Browser, so …

Another tipp: you can choose in locus-settings the folder. So you can select here an accessable folder

Is it in folder "android/data/" with no access? Then you can use X-Plore,then its possible

PS: If MF dont have the "skills" to programm this user-friendly, then MF should at least provide an internal "file browser" in the navigator, with which one has access to the data directory!

I installed both, Locus and MFN, today on a plain, factory-reset-device! Locus-developers programmed to use the "android/data/"-folder, So, it is possible. MF had just to programm it "right". For me, the great advantage of MF w…
