I share routes with another user for motorcycle touring we do each year in Western Europe.
I switch between maps when routing, Michelin maybe in Germany (where Google street view does not work) then maybe in Google maps, as the interface is good, use the street view etc (france..)
I have been exporting to my Samsung Note 9, gpx1.1 format.
The routes look OK in the BMW connected app....routes to be tested...
I also had Tomtom app on the phone. ( routes not recognised, to be re visited depending on feedback)

My friend uses a Garmin unit, I will be using the Note 9 in the BMW connected cradle.

So a couple of questions;
We have multiple waypoints on all routes to stop re calculation, all road types allowed on the navigation systems...
Is there any other reason why they should not follow the same routes exactly?
If I re instal Tomtom app (removed today after getting annoyed with it!)
Do I need to view my route on the Tomtom map, then export as gpx1.1?
Will this be the same route?
The waypoints look the same on all maps..placed to stop the sat nav making choices and force a turn at every junction. All zoomed in to check for mis placed waypoints (wrong side of motorway etc.)

Thanks in advance
