Retrieving points from stored route

NeccX over 1 year ago

Is it possible to retrieve a track in any form and get points from them?

I know I can persist waypoints, but would like to send the gpx to my app (bypassing Connect app).

Thanks,

Tom

It’s not clear what you want to do.

Your app could open the GPX file through a URL as text, which means you’d have to parse all the GPX in your app (a really bad idea).

I think you’d have to slurp all the text before you could process it. And you’d run out of memory.

“Stored route” (in the title) sound like you want to read a file on the device (downloaded earlier).

Note that most of the devices only let you download FIT files. Others (like for hiking) only let you download GPX files.

IQ doesn’t let you read files.
