GRouteLoader lets you download route files wirelessly from an appropriate webpage. It can also load routes from the "gexporter" Android app.

Basically, GRouteLoader is a "micro" web browser for your Edge.
It lets you download (and launch) routes and download waypoints. It also can display extra information about the routes and even launch webpages. It also allows submenus.
Bicycle clubs could use this app to make routes available to their members with some web programming know-how (the app loads JSON pages). Without needing to write the Connect IQ app.
You can use https://btcnj.com/grldemo/grldemo.php in the application settings as a demonstration. (Opening this in a browser will work but it's JSON, so it will look funny. Of course, if you want to see how things work, you should open it in a browser!)

It can be used in place of the gimporter app and access the website created by the gexporter Android app (even if that app is not on the phone running Garmin Connect Mobile; you just need to know the IP address.).
This is version 2 of the app. It does much more than the first version.
===================
I have a webpage for my bicycle club that dynamically creates a list of rides that have RWGPS routes. With the app, members can download the routes for upcoming rides or even at the start site.
I can also create a website on my computer using a program (like caddy.exe) to make route files on that computer downloadable. (I have a program that creates the directory file from the files in the web server folder.)
===================
It took (me) about two months to write the app.
It took about two hours to write the website page.
(Of course, having had written the app did make writing the web page easier, but it still isn't going to be overly difficult.)
