[closed] Save and stop option has disappeared
I've been happily using AQ for a couple of years. Recently the 'Save and stop'option has disappeared from my screen. Any ideas? Screenshot attached.

Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
Hi,
Yes, this is the new behavior as of version 2.2.5 (explained in the what's new description).
You stop the track recording using the usual toggle button, no need to do anything else.

Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
The problem is that it becomes difficult to name the track. I've found that I can name a track by using 'edit details' but the saved track doesn't include the new name. Nor does an exported version of the track. This doesn't make things easier for me, rather it adds a layer of complication. Is there a way of reverting to the previous setup?
Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
Admin please note that the help screens need to be updated to reflect this change, too.

Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
Hi again,
At any time, you can click on the 3 dots (bottom left), tap the "Track" text anywhere, and type a name. You don't need to wait until the end anymore.
You can also, of course, edit the track name after you've stopped the track recorder.
However I take into account your report, I'll try to make it easier to edit the current track name.
The next update will also have few updates on this feature (mostly on the listing of previously recorded tracks), then I'll update the online help.

Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
OK thanks. My main issue is that the 'edit details' option doesn't create a change in the track title when saved or exported. I'm currently having to navigate to the track title and rename it after export.

Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
It should. It does change the same the same way.
If not please provide me as much information as possible so I can fix this problem.

What details do you need? I change the track name using edit details then export as .kml Neither the track name in the Landmarks folder nor the .kml file in the Exported Landmarks folder display the changed name.

Also if I try to name the track via the Details screen (the one with the pen icon) then I don't get my keyboard popping up...

Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
I'm sorry but I'm not able to reproduce this problem so I won't be able to do anything, that's why anything would help, like if you see any error message.
When I edit a track name, it does change accordingly in the recorded tracks list.

Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
Concerning the keyboard, try to un-check the "Display over lockscreen" option in the application settings if it's checked.

OK thanks. It's a bit annoying, but manageable.
Re: Save and stop option has disappeared
Display over lockscreen is unchacked. Phone is Moto G7 Power if that helps..
