Gpx

Seems a waste of money

Fehlkauf!

Trotz Angabe, dass nmea Dateien gelesen werden sollen, funktioniert es nicht.
Ich nutze einen Tracker (GNS3000), welcher in NMEA 0138 Dateien aufzeichnet und als txt speichert. Wird nicht erkannt.
Wieso wird keine Probeversion angeboten. Man kauft für nichts.

Useless

Open a GPX file and all it shows are straight lines between waypoints, useless.

Fonctionne parfaitement pour ouvrir et exporter touts tracés GPX

Excellente application. Rend bien des services comme interface pour gérer ses traces GPX. Permet d'importer, visualiser et ouvrir dans d'autres applications des routes et traces GPX.

Werkt niet

Enkel zwart scherm...

Was amazing but........

since the latest update I can’t open GPX files stored in Dropbox and since that’s where I save all my files I’m a bit stuck!

Any advice?

One of the best trip planning apps

GPX Reader is one of my favourite motorcycle trip planning apps. I use Garmin Base Camp to create a basic route, then use GPX Reader to view the route in hybrid mode. Hybrid mode combines satellite with map views so it's easy to zoom in and search out remote roads not easily found. Some of my best trips where planned with the help of GPX Reader. Thanks

Setting screen doesn’t work (not worth £1.99!)

Nice images (from google earth) with inaccurate blue track marked...but settings for waymarks and tracks doesn’t work (greyed out). Can’t find any other setting anywhere! Bizarre. No help for walks apart from seeing Google Earth images. Am I missing something?

Finally got the app to read my tcx files

Limited functionality, but does what you expect. Would like to see route distance expressed in miles rather than km. Option to save to Google Maps would be useful.

No Labels

The map plots all of my points but doesn't label them. I have no idea what point is what.

iCloud?

Still apparently doesn't work.

URL import

URL import unfortunately did not work for me - app keeps loading it forever. As I bought it only for this feature, I'm not satisfied.

Great Dropbox integration, missing major feature

I like how easy it is to use and to transfer files to it via iCloud and Dropbox or just a simple URL.

Please add functions to "zoom to my current location" and show the direction I'm facing.

I used it today to follow a GPX bike route between Essen and Duisburg and it worked great for that except I had to manually move the map around to find myself after I had traveled a bit.

not that bad

good soft, but I need the map to re-center on my position, and rotation to read on country side format. Plans limitations?

Works great, but i'd love to

1) be able to browse an iCloud drive folder (and sub-folders) instead of being stuck to a hidden folder. I use iCloud drive on Mac through finder and i’d love to just drop it in a folder and have the app be able to go fetch it.

2) be able to read waypoint data such as name. A blank orange dot doesn’t tell me much

3) be able to add waypoints and edit waypoint data such as name, add a description, and maybe a photo (not sure if this is possible to gpx files)

4) be able to save GPX maps for offline use. Perhaps a toggle “Save for offline” to save locally, and with folder structure

5) be able to view elevation data, so I know what I will be coming up to on my route

Thanks

Useless for driving

Sorry but I had high hopes for this app. It loads GPX files but it just draws a straight line between the waypoints instead of mapping them onto a route map for driving. This may work for open terrain but that's not what GPS is usually used for in the real world!

Pretty good, but....

Screen orientation is only in landscape mode, no portrait ? Has to be an oversight. Hope it gets addressed soon. I hate the green banner, just takes up valuable real-estate; for what we really want to see..... The map!

Positives: the app does what it says. Good looking map and the .gpx file overlays perfectly. I used it today to track a 325mi trip I planned out in Garmin BaseCamp. This app read it and kept up with the live location flawlessly.

App no longer loads

First off, I've been recommended this app by someone who has thoroughly tested it over long distance. All was working fine but when I tried to upload the data to iCloud, the app crashed and will no longer open. I've tried re-loading but no joy. I'm sure it'll be fixed on the next update? If so, when?

UPDATE: Crashes in iOS 8.1 and 8.2

3/12/15 Update: Still crashes at launch in 8.2.

Was working great in iOS8, updated to 8.1 and crashes before the app can load. Support website has been down for days. #fail

Don't Upgrade to 8.1

8.0 worked. I was hoping for a fix with some of the settings, so I upgraded. Now it crashes before it loads. I shoulda read the earlier review. Wish I could indicate 0 stars.
