You can also cancel the upload and then force it again to upload it.
Simply click the shown icons 😉

@Con-Hennekens said in Hard to stop tracklog recording and discard it:

Screen estate is limited.

Yes, that's always the issue on mobile devices.

The save icon is only present on the screen, after having pressed the record icon. So maybe there is enough space, next to the save icon, for a new icon with a trash can.

At least my 8 inch tablet has enough space for an additional icon 😁

@Con-Hennekens legt het goed uit.
Er is ook een andere uitleg.
Een Route-Track is een track die in het GPX bestand zit wanneer in MRA of Basecamp of andere routeplanner een route gemaakt hebt en deze als GPX opslaat.

This is indeed already on our list of suggestions! 🙂
Not sure if it will be implemented before the release but I guess it won’t take too long before we start working on these kind of suggestions 🙂
