Export GPX from Garmin Connect Mobile

Hi, I have a question I hope someone can help me with.

I typically use the Gaia GPS app in conjunction with my Garmin Instinct watch. I use the offline Gaia hiking maps on my phone to create routes on the go and then I export them to Garmin Connect so I can then send them to my watch. I then use my watch to navigate my hiking route. This flow works well for me so far.

I would really like to be able to do the reverse and export activity GPS tracks from Garmin Connect Mobile so that I can store them in Gaia. Is there any way to do this? I know it’s possible to do so from the web app, but I haven’t found a way to do so from the mobile app.

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.

I suppose you are using an iPhone? On android it’s easy, not in the app but in any browser just like on a computer. iOS browsers seem to not allow the script that connect use to export GPX , I’m als very surprised that this issue has not been solved by garmin, apple, or any coding wizard out there..

Use the web interface, not the app - https://connect.garmin.com/modern/

thanks. that worked.

Exactly, and btw. it works also on iOS as long as you use the Chrome browser (at least with my current iPhone and version). DuckDuckGo, Safari, Edge and Firefox did not allow this when I last tried.

I'd really appreciate to have this feature in the Mobile App. The web interface workaround is rather inconvenient.
