Can't load GPX files anymore since 5.7.1 (maybe 5.7)

Hello,
I use regularly the GPX import feature in iOS (= share the GPX file to Garmin connect).

However since the last update I am getting the following message and can't load GPX files anymore:

This is very annoying currently as I don't have a way to import my bike or routing route anymore...

Thanks for a quick solution,

    The quickest solution is importing the course in Garmin Connect Web. A slow solution is reporting the issue to the Support, and waiting for the fix.

    My usual process is to plan the quick rides+runs directly from my phone. I don’t want to start the PC for this. 

    An other option is to import the GPX into Garmin Explore, but this doesn’t work for the bike computers (Edge)…

    At least I hope someone from the support team will have a look into this issue and solves it.
    It is not the first time this very same issue appears and get fixed.

    Garmin Connect Web works on phones too

    If you report it to them, there is chance, but if you need a quick solution, GC Web is the way to go

    I did some further testing and it looks like the way the GPX filenames are handled has changed in the last version.

    Now if a GPX has spaces in the name, import will fail.

    When renaming the gpx file generated from EasyRoute (ex: Biking 2.8k in Paris.gpx) into the same file but without space (ex: Biking_2.8k_in_Paris.gpx), the import is then successful.

    I hope this can help a quick resolution
