LAN004 - Route Import filetypes

[Lluis Arasanz]

Hi,

I tried to import a route, and see all normal file types, plus “.mra”.

Thinking format is the same that export as “MyRoute-App (.mra, full route)”, I tried to export and import.

Export as MyRoute-app generates a .json;
Import does not recognize neither .json nor .mra file types.

Only the two GPX I have are detected.

Missed something?

@Lluis-Arasanz The .mra format is specifically designed for people who want to back up their library themselves. It allows you to export all the details you have recorded in your routes. You can export all your routes in one go. MRA packages them into a ZIP file, including your folder structure.

@Rob-Verhoeff Obviously,yes, but what purpose does backing up files into a proprietary format other than gpx, serve when those files themselves cannot be read back by the platform they have been exported from.

This must be one of those minor thingies Corjan solves in a jiffy...

@Rob-Verhoeff

I suppose you mean this export format, don’t you?

This generates a .json file, not an .mra

Import does not recognize neither.mra nor .json

If I’m wrong, please, how I must save a route to .mra file to backup?

This is definitely an iPad thing.
Will fix later.

[Lluis Arasanz]

Yes, is detected on iPad

Thanks Corjan!

[Corjan Meijerink]

I think it's fixed for iPad

@Lluis-Arasanz as I don’t have a tablet it works fine on the desktop. The only thing not working is sharing the url with a friend and then start the shared route with that url.

@Corjan-Meijerink

I’ll check in a while

[Lluis Arasanz]

@Rob-Verhoeff i’ll try to check from my side

[Lluis Arasanz]

@Corjan-Meijerink

Checked. Works as expected.

If I share a route, by telegram for example, I sent a GPX.

If I open in android, it has associated MyRoute-app as application to run, then open MyRoute automàtica L y And i can start to navigate

On IOS, when I Click GPX, text editor is opene by default and from here, i must export to MyRoute.(Same behavior in iPad with V5 ans iPhone with V6)

After that second export, i can navigate as usual.

Pehaps is normal behavior for IOS devices...

At this point the app indeed cannot use the file.
Trying to get it in
