Sometimes. No support *2025-08-24, version 4.6.7* 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. ### 4/5 — Where is the heart rate? *2022-06-21, version 3.3.3* A reasonably good app. That said, it doesn't seem to export heart rate. That would get the fifth star. ### 4/5 — HR data would be good *2022-02-23, version 3.0.1* 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! ### 4/5 — Generally good but *2020-11-07, version 2.5* ... can I have all GPX files exported to a folder, or can you just expose all GPX files in Files app? I need to import all of my hundreds of workouts to Fog of World. Edit: I figured this out, thank you. I would still suggest expose these files in documents so people who prefers iTunes/Finder sync can use cable. ### 5/5 — Very nice ! *2020-09-08* Fait le job parfaitement 👌🏼 Permet d’importer ses activités Apple Watch directement dans Strava en toute simplicité ! Merci 👍🏼🚲 **Developer response:** Je t’en prie! ### 5/5 — Just what I needed *2020-08-04, version 2.5* I was looking for an app to export my daily walk/run from my Apple Watch workouts to GPX files. I am participating in a charity fundraising relay event online that requires uploading GPX files to log activities completed. Not sure why this functionality is not built into the Apple workout app and other apps seem to require a subscription to utilize this feature. Glad I found GPX Workout because it has been working perfectly and it is free! ### 5/5 — Perfect for Fog of World *2020-07-30, version 2.5* Easy to import Apple Watch gps workout data to the fog of world app. ### 5/5 — Worked Beautifully for TrainingPeaks *2020-06-26, version 2.4.5* While TrainingPeaks is supposed to work with Apple Watch, if an export fails or I just work out with the phone, I was out of luck... until I found this app. Now I can import past workouts by saving the GPX and using drag and drop right into the TP web site. Thank you GPX Workout app developer!!! ### 5/5 — Allows me to access my data *2019-09-24, version 2.4.3* Sometimes the Strava app on my Apple Watch doesn’t work but this app successfully lets me export a gpx file from the Workouts app and import to Strava. Perfect! ### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for!!! *2019-09-18, version 2.4.3* Easy to export my data to gpx for importing into strava! It worked well for running without my phone on my 2 workouts using apple's workout app. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Work as expected *2019-09-17* Works as expected. I can export and share my gpx files. Big thank you to the developer. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes on import *2024-10-03, version 4.6.5* Useless if the app straight up crashes when you import. ### 1/5 — Stopped importing *2024-09-29, version 4.6.5* Sadly has stopped working ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-08-14* I have an error « no distance avalaible for this workout » ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2024-07-27, version 4.6.4* Doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Having errors importing gpx files in Strava *2023-10-01, version 4.3* It says the file is empty. ### 1/5 — No HealthKit integration *2023-04-02, version 1.4* Perhaps I misunderstood the purpose of this app, but there's no integration with activitives generated on your Apple Watch. ### 1/5 — Super unstable, crashes endlessly. *2022-09-14, version 3.6* 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. ### 1/5 — GPX Workout iCloud Issue *2020-10-25, version 2.5* The iPad app is no longer working after I inadvertently deleted the Run folder from iCloud. Recreating the folder doesn’t fix the problem. I’ve tried deleting the app, rebooting my iPhone and reinstalling the app but it still doesn’t work. I was really enjoying the larger maps on my iPad. How do I get the app working again? ### 1/5 — Simply doesn’t work *2019-01-19, version 2.2.5* App doesn’t even request Health permissions to access your data. Useless. ### 3/5 — Exported GPX files won’t import to Google Maps *2021-05-31, version 2.5* 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”. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Much needed functionality *2024-07-30, version 4.6.4* 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 ### 5/5 — Danke für diese tolle App! *2023-10-28* :-) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2023-10-26, version 4.3.1* Does exactly what it says it will and that’s a very useful thing. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2023-04-19, version 3.8* Adds much needed functionality to iOS in allowing the export of recorded exercises. Well designed app too. ### 5/5 — great app *2023-04-03, version 1.4* works great to import runs from runkeeper to strava so easy to use ### 5/5 — Works perfect *2022-06-10* Just what I searched. Export and visualize only selected tracks from my Apple Watch workouts. Really worth the (little) money. **Developer response:** 🙏 ### 5/5 — Does the job! *2022-05-14, version 3.2.1* 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! ### 5/5 — Nice App *2022-03-16* 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. **Developer response:** 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. ### 5/5 — Strava compatible output *2022-01-11, version 2.5* 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 👍 ### 5/5 — Good, simple and straightforward *2021-05-09, version 2.5* Good, simple, nice-looking and straightforward app without ads. Many thanks for this!!! Discovered a small bug: when renaming a local GPX track, it is not renamed in the list until the app is restarted. Also I would agree with the previous reviewer that local files should be exposed to iTunes/Finder management. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
