  • Very nice app

    This app is very nice to use however if you have a gpx file already open and try to open a different one, no waypoints are displayed. This just means you have to restart the app whenever you want to change between gpx files.
  • Brilliant!

    Works exactly as advertised. Loaded a massive GPX in for geocaching and it ate it without fuss. 5 stars.
  • crashes

    when I try to load a gpx file, the app immediately crashes on my 5S iPhone. This is the only reason I bought the app, so a complete fail...
  • Exactly what I was looking for

    I am an adventure motorcyclist who often follows downloaded GPS tracks. My Garmin is great for navigating them, but when in a hotel I often want to review the next days tracks on a larger screen. This app allows me to pull a GPX file out of my Dropbox for review on my iPad.
  • What I was looking for

    This was what I wanted to do with my GPX files . As I have a iPod touch this app mapped my gpx files. Works for me.
  • Not for off-line use

    It has an intuitive interface; easily integrates with Dropbox (and I guess iCloud and URLs as well).

    But be aware that there is very little off-line capability. i.e. you can only open a new GPX file if you have on-line access; it seems that there is no ability to store GPX files on the iPhone. If you have a file loaded with no internet connectivity, then obviously the satellite imagery will not update, but since the GPS receiver should work, you should be able to determine whether or not you are following the pre-assigned path. However, until you get internet access again, this will be the only route you can see/follow.

    Overall, I think it's worth the asking price.

  • Bum GPX has no map integration

    Useless app. I load a GPX track from a weekend ride. I get straight lines between the points instead of the roads I covered. Useless. Please give me $1.99 back and the 10 minutes out of my life.
  • Import fails

    Not happy, as I can't import neither a gpx nor a tcx file ! I've now tried to import both from a ftp site and from gdrive :( "import error: there was a problem..."
  • Great addition to Apple maps

    GPX Reader is a great addition to Apple Maps. For over 10 years I have logged my GPS tracks, when on vacation, or riding my motorcycle. I logged most tracks with a Garmin eTrex, and recorded, viewed, draw, and play back my tracks with GARtrip, on my home computer or laptop. A problem with GARtrip, is that it does not interface easily with map software, so it can be difficult to draw your track on a map, but it does let you export your track to other formats like GPX. I have exported most of my old tracks to GPX format and stored them in Dropbox. Now when I return to an area that I had been to many years ago, I can follow an old track, by just reloading from Dropbox with GPX Reader. One feature GPX Reader lacks is a way to read a track point, so you might tell the time and date that you created the original track. This is well worth a buck to relive a special place, from the past.
