Hello, thank you for the replys.
I will upload the .gpx file(s) and a screen shot today. I have tested this on several .gpx files (v1.0 gpx format) that I use ok on garmin devices and MyRouteApp.com. OsmAnd does not show the route calculated when .gpx is loaded. Just straight lines connecting the waypoints. Is there a way to stop the recalulation of routes? thanks On Wednesday, June 28, 2017 at 1:22:50 AM UTC-4, Poutnik wrote: > > Dne 27/06/2017 v 20:25 Brian Coutinho napsal(a): > > Hi, > > its been a while (a year or two ) since I used OsmAnd.
