Eventually it uploads . Sometimes. No support

Initial experience was not good. Would not upload to Strava. I now have it uploading sometimes. I still get unknown error at times but I have uploaded 3 days. So I have improved my review. Needs some sort of troubleshooting page to sort out problems.

Crashes on import

Useless if the app straight up crashes when you import.

Much needed functionality

If apple allowed you to move routes to backtrack after the fact life would be so much easier.

This solves that - you can extract workout route and quickly import it to map apps such as avenza where you can navigate back along it.

Thank you

Excellent

Adds much needed functionality to iOS in allowing the export of recorded exercises. Well designed app too.

No HealthKit integration

Perhaps I misunderstood the purpose of this app, but there's no integration with activitives generated on your Apple Watch.

Super unstable, crashes endlessly.

I want to love it but it just crashes and crashes have to import things one at a time and you cannot import any swims or runs for some reason. When you try it crashes. Do not buy.

Where is the heart rate?

A reasonably good app. That said, it doesn't seem to export heart rate. That would get the fifth star.

Response from developer

Hi, and thanks for the review. The steps and heart rate is an optional feature you can enable from the settings. Provided the workout has been recorded with a device that supports heart rate and step counting (the Apple Watch does, for example), you should see the extra tags in the GPX file. Please get in touch and I’ll be happy to investigate this further 👍

Works perfect

Just what I searched.
Export and visualize only selected tracks from my Apple Watch workouts. Really worth the (little) money.

Does the job!

I often accidentally end rides in the middle on my Apple Watch and then I have two workouts for the same ride uploaded to Strava. This app allows me to export the GPX files for both rides and then I’m using a free online tool that combines the GPX files. Adding the “merging” files feature in the app would be sweet, but this workflow is good too :) Thanks for building!

Thanks for the feedback Emily, the merging feature sounds like an interesting idea. I'll explore the options :)

Nice App

work fine for me, one issue, all gpx files have no heart rate information. In settings there is no option to activate it for this app.

Hi Uesguer, and thanks for using my app and taking the time to review it. You’re right, I recently removed heart rate and steps because they were not compliant with the GPX specs and were causing compatibility issues with some third party apps. It’s a compromise I have to accept for now but I’m looking for alternatives.

HR data would be good

Would be nice if it exported HR data, and would also be more convenient if you could select multiple workouts to bulk upload to Strava, but all-in-all, great app! Thank you!

Strava compatible output

Using the app I was able to export a workout which lacked GPS from the first 10 mins - not unusual when the watch reminds you to start a workout - and add in that first part using an online editor so Strava counted it as part of the activity.
I tried other apps which did odd things like exporting the workout as waypoints. This app produces track points on a track 👍

Exported GPX files won’t import to Google Maps

Nice user interface, easy to use. But the GPX files it produces can’t be imported into Google Maps. Google says “The file contains invalid or unsupported data”.
