Platform Specific
Android
OMN4 on Android is designed for live use outdoors, with offline maps, GPS, and tracklogs all available on the device you carry with you.
What Stands Out On Android
- GPS and tracklogs are first-class features.
- Settings > Data lets you control whether streaming and downloads use Wi-Fi only or also use mobile data.
- Android battery management can affect background recording more than desktop users expect.
Important Android Advice
- Grant location permission when OMN4 asks for it.
- If tracklogs stop when the app is in the background, check Android battery optimisation and whitelist OMN where needed.
- If you use removable or slower storage, large map operations may take longer.
Downloads On Android
For big downloads, leave OMN4 running until the queue is well underway or complete. This is especially useful before a trip when you do not want surprises later.
