### 5/5 — Nice, please also for Apple Watch

*2024-05-29, version 1.0.29*

Thanks for the great app! I really enjoy using it.
Nevertheless, I have a request: could you also develop the app for the Apple Watch? That would be great.

### 2/5 — Könnte besser sein

*2023-09-06, version 1.0.27*

Kein GPS Import

### 3/5 — Great idea, doesn’t work for me

*2022-05-24, version 1.0.24*

This is exactly what I need for my forthcoming road trip. I had already planned the GPX tracks for each day but wanted them shown on Google or Apple maps so I could follow them. 

All looks great with this App except whenever I upload a track (which is a bit complex as you have to have it as a URL, not just a gpx file to upload from your computer) and then load the map to run I see nothing. I have 8 maps loaded, have tried gpx files from different programmes, nothing shows - and no link to contact the developer directly. Thus writing this. A shame, it would have been ideal!
