@Brian-Martin, You are sharing a textfile in Google drive, not the route in MRA

@Brian-Martin Hi Brian
I'vew looked at your route
Most of the waypoints are not ON the route
Have you tried putting them ON the road
If you have downloaded the maps of that country you should be able to use that route and navigate is -

@Brian-Martin I also checked your route: same finding with WP not exactly on the road. Please use map engine HEERE to place the WP exactly.
I tried also to navigate with. By online navigation, it works fine. Just by offline navigation, I have got error message: "could not calculate a route" - but this is because I did not download a map for offline usage before.
So, everything works as designed for me

If you have planned a route in MRA Route Planner - or would like to use a track - than both would be available in myRoute-App as well for navigation. But it's needed to activate "synchronisation for all" in front of. (If you open a route in MyRoute-App, tap on 3 dots in top right corner and select "sync for all").By this, you can navigate with a route or with a track as long as you are online. If you intent to be offline later on, go online in front of your trip, goto your Account in MyRoute-App (tap 3 lines icon at top left corner, then Account icon at top right corner, then scroll down an select "offline maps" - and download maps for all regions/countries the route or track Passes trough you want to use. And keep them up to date further on!
Just then, you can navigate with a route or track also offline
Not sure what you intend with the downloaded gpx file. From where did you download to where to store? You can use a gpx file from elsewhere, but at first upload it from your computer to MRA Route Planner. Then - as I wrote above, if you have switched on "synch" - the route or track you have created or uploaded to MRA Route Planner will be available automatically at your p.e. Smartphone in MyRoute-App. There is no need to load the gpx file to your Smartphone.

I usually download GPX files into Google Drive on my PC, phone, and Tablet I use for navigation. It's pretty seemless, as soon as I and file is added to the folder it's there straight away on all devices.
Thanks for you help. -
