Open Source course/FIT/GPX importer App

Hi,

I just want to advertise my freshly started open source project. So, if you are an Android or ConnectIQ developer or know one, please consider reading:
https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?373792-Open-Source-course-FIT-GPX-importer

Short version:

Imagine you are on the go and want to upload a course to your Garmin device to follow the track. As of now, this involves uploading the gpx file to the Garmin web site, somehow create a course from it and then select "Export to device" in the mobile app. This open source project tries to develop the solution for an easy import of FIT/GPX files to your Garmin device.

Thanks!

After some coding I now have a working android and connectiq app :-)

I will publish both in the stores in the next days.

The android app will serve GPX and FIT tracks in /sdcard/Download and will convert GPX to a FIT course on the fly.

With the connectiq app you can scroll through the list of tracks and download any of them. You can later start any activity and use the downloaded course. The course name of the GPX converted files is the file name.

Currently I inject some course points in the FIT. My guess is that it will help, if you resume the course.
