Great, but there’s a bug with filenames/filepaths

I used to love this app, but it’s become really unreliable lately. For some reason, the ability to save gpx tracks as files works…then doesn’t work…then works again…then doesn’t work.

I don’t know if it’s people screwing around with the code in GitHub, but it’s become too unreliable to use anymore. You just never know if you’re going to lose a day’s worth of data or not because the file won’t save.

Useless

No iCloud folder sync so cannot open on ipad gpx file created on iphone.

Great, but there’s a bug with filenames/filepaths

This has been a great app for collecting gps x time data. I’ve been using it for a few years and don’t hesitate to recommend it.

However I’ve noticed a bug which I hope someone can fix:
- if I try to save a file with a filename (or filepath?) that is too long, the file doesn’t save and there is no error message to warn about this. I’ve lost 3 or 4 days worth of data this way.

I’ve proved this to myself by:
- saving with a long filename (file does not save)
- editing the filename to something shorter (file saves as expected)

You can verify a file has saved by:
- saving the file
- looking into the saved folder and checking my file exists
- checking that a note shows it has saved recently

Sehr hilfreich und komplett kostenlos !

Die App hat mir unglaublich geholfen als Orientierung auf den riesigen Feldern einer kanadischen Farm. Zusätzlich zum Lenksystem im Traktor konnte ich mich damit zurechtfinden und auch beim Steinesammeln konnte ich große Flächen damit gezielt abfahren.
