cant access gpx files that are already on my device
When on bike rides with fellow riders, everyone follows me when I use this app. It calls out the turns perfectly - in what ever language I want using the units I desire. Put a speaker mod on the back of my Moto Z Force, and everyone hears it. So much better than hearing the annoying bells and clanks of the Garmin system.
I've been struggling for days with numerous other apps to get turn by turn navigation for my cycling routes. Most of them are ridiculously over designed, or try to do too many things (training regimen, geocaching, etc.), making them effectively impossible to use (from my perspective, at least) This app is SO simple, and direct. It does ONE thing, and it does it well, and easily.
Doesnt work basically. Wont find a satellite. Told just to re install and try again. No support from support at all.will be asking for my money back.
Created a gpx route using bikemap. Loads fine here. Cant wait to try the voice navigation for my trip. If it allows offline maps download for routes, it would be awesome! Waypoints created in ride with GPS do not load when imported. But u can login to your ride with GPS account to see your waypoints.
This has been my go-to app for my road cycling for 2 years now. I love the simplicity and how seamlessly in links to Ride-With-GPS. Thanks for keeping it so simple and ad free!
Will only read routes on phone storage and not on any memory cards in use. If this was fixed would get a full 5 stars
Would be ever better if I could reverse the route and if it offered to navigate back to route if I deviate from it.
It would be perfect if only it had offline maps. Please make that happen.
I don't understand why don't have any options to upload my routes
Can't view local filled! I've got tcx and gpx files on my phone, and can't see any way to view them!
Looked all over for a simple yet effective app to help guide me on custom motorcycle ride routes. I needed ear bud turn by turn voice guidance which worked with the screen off and didn't kill the battery... this app does the job and syncs nicely with my online account for ease of use / editing!!! (Update, dropped a star bc it does not seem to work if you have an overlapping route... )
For all the people who are struggling with .tcx / gpx files - Upload these to ridewithgps, then access your account through this app. Uploading there doesn't automatically create waypoints for your files though. If you want waypoints, create a route on ridewithgps and then access it through this app. Ridewithgps charges for turn-by-turn navigation, this app simply takes your waypoints from there and then navigates for you for free! I haven't tried using preloaded .gpx or .tcx files to navigate though, so I can't say for sure how or if this works. I know that this way I get exactly what I needed - voiced turn-by-turn navigation for my own created routes (through ridewithgps), for free!
Great for pre planned route, just wish offtrack navigation could be added when turning is missed so I don't need to dig phone out to find the turning
Used this app for a Birmingham to London 2 day cycle I did this week. Worked very well on my Nexus 4; with 2 battery rechargers to keep it going all day. Shall use it again. Would be even better if it orientated itself to the direction of travel. I used GPX files I had created in Endomondo. Couldn't find a way to add waypoints to the GPX files but it mattered not as I just used the map view anyway.
Useless for my purposes (follow a ride to navigate), as the "import tcx" does not really work, no routes are found, even though they are on my SD card (and I program in php and perl, so it is unlikely to be me)
Only the distance to waypoints during navigation seems a bit off, but the app works great!
Finally, the app to navigate .gpx files ! Excellent. But pls. include an option to keep the arrow pointed up and allow the map to be automatically rotated. All the same, a wonderful app for FREE !
Surprised this app is free.
Can't open up existing gpx files. Doesn't seem to work on latest Android updates. Awful experience so far. Shame
