Export waypoints to Google Maps on mobile
-
I use myrouteapp.com for creating storing and managing road trip routes. I have a lifetime subscription so I'd really like to keep using it. I have the MRA app on my android mobile, which allows me to access my stored maps.
I use Google maps on my bike. I used to use tomtom, but I've recently switched. I like to use waypoints, so on tomtom I exported itn files rather than gpx. Worked perfectly, and I could do this on the road using a sdcard.
So MRA > TomTom could be done in a few minutes.I'm seeking a similar workflow MRA > Google Maps. Which to my mind if all on the same mobile, should be super easy. But I can't find an option - hence my suggestion, can there be an export direct to google maps.
I have tried the optional turn-by-turn navigation from MRA, but it's not for me. Will try again in the future. But even if that's good for me, I like to have multiple options.
unfortunately I do not think MRA > Google maps is going to work for you
I used a similar workflow to you when I had a TomTom 410, it worked very wellGoogle navigation is pretty much an start position A > destination B navigation system
you can add in the odd Via point in Google maps but the system does not accept import of GPX/KML files that can be navigatedI totaly agree with having a second back navigation option, I use MRA navigation as my main app & Osmand as the backup
Osmand is clunky but it does function reasonably well -

@BFG, What do you dislike about the MRA Route Navigation, and what do you like better on gMaps for a feature that it does not even have (scenic routing, navigating many route points)? Given the many features asked for in this forum, I do not understand what anyone could prefer on gMaps to be honest (besides A2B navigation that is).

The last time I tried the app, its instructions were completely wrong. I had it running in parallel with TomTom, and was testing it on a very well known route. No milestone / waypoints, just a single destination set. NN make 10 mistakes in the first 30 miles, telling me to take the wrong road each time. Many times I could see it wanted to take me into a car park, turn around and come out again. Stopped and double-checked destination and settings. Set it going also in parallel on my partner's phone. Set off again and it failed almost immediately. It felt like it was a pre-Alpha release. OK, I could keep it running in parallel, but then it was doing very strange things with the display which became a distraction.
This was Mar last year. https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/8980/first-time-navigation-next-on-android-auto-strange-display-rotation
I didn't try it again. If another free trial was offered I'd have given it another go after a few months.
Maybe I should try again. -
If you’ve that many faults it must have something to do with your navigationsettings

I don't recognize anything you say... -
You asked. If you don't like the answer, it's not my problem.

It does! they come in as pins. Thank you. This is a step closer. There are android apps that allow navigation from My Map pins.
