Added a custom caption textarea in the Text tab of the template customizer

Pain point

Features

Solution

Custom Caption in Text Overlay

• Added a custom caption textarea in the Text tab of the template customizer

• User-typed captions take priority over AI-generated captions during replay

Example

Music Unavailability Indicator

• Music tracks that fail to load now show a "Coming Soon" badge instead of silently failing

• Unavailable tracks are dimmed and non-clickable, making the state clear to users

• `AudioManager` now exposes `probeTrack()` and `isUnavailable()` for availability checking

Replay Config Flow

• Controls are shown first; template panel opens on play button click

• Cleaner entry into the replay configuration experience

Bug Fixes

• Fixed filter, transition, text style, and position labels rendering as raw English strings — they now go through i18n and display correctly in Chinese and other languages

• Fixed `ReplayTextOverlay` never being mounted — text overlays now actually appear on the map during playback

• Fixed responsive globe zoom on mobile — full globe is now visible on iPhone-sized screens

Decision Criteria at Bottom Funnel

Bottom-funnel readers are evaluating confidence, switching cost, and output predictability. Generic feature lists are rarely enough.

Content should prioritize decision dimensions: onboarding time, migration friction, and quality consistency.

For "locusify update", define clear evaluation criteria so readers can choose quickly based on their workflow reality.

Comparison Method That Builds Trust

Use one real dataset across tools and compare three metrics: completion time, correction workload, and final publish quality.

A practical baseline flow remains: Custom Caption in Text Overlay • Added a custom caption textarea in the Text tab of the template customizer • User-typed captions take priority over AI-generated captions during replay. Keep claims tied to observable process outcomes.

Write conclusions as fit-by-scenario, not absolute winner claims. This increases credibility and conversion quality.

Bottom-Funnel Conversion Actions

End with explicit actions: test run, import real assets, export first version. Concrete actions move decisions forward.

Include risk notes and fallback paths. Balanced framing often converts better than aggressive claims.

Interlink to tutorial and case-study pages to complete the comparison -> trial -> validation loop.

Frequently asked questions

What is the fastest way to start with locusify update?

Use one recent trip folder and run the full flow once: import, timeline check, outlier cleanup, and short replay export.

What if some photos do not contain GPS metadata?

Build the core route from geotagged photos first, then place non-geotagged images as chapter visuals instead of route points.

How do I make outputs more shareable on social channels?

Keep runtime concise, start with route overview, highlight key stops, and export directly in the target aspect ratio.

Where does Locusify fit in this workflow?
