Importing GPX routes

MOOV+ members can import standard GPX files and preview them on a map before saving.

With a MOOV+ subscription you can import standard GPX 1.0 and 1.1 files from any mapping app or route planner that exports GPX.

  1. 1Open Menu, then Routes, and tap Import GPX
  2. 2Choose a .gpx file from your device
  3. 3MOOV parses the file in your browser, shows the route on a map and computes its distance and elevation
  4. 4Name the route, pick the sport and an optional collection
  5. 5Tap Save to add it to your route library

What is checked before a route is saved

  • •Files up to 5 MB
  • •Up to 20,000 track points per file — larger files are rejected, long tracks are thinned to 400 stored points while keeping their shape
  • •Coordinates must be valid latitude and longitude values
  • •Elevation values outside a sane range are ignored — the route is still saved without elevation data
Importing is a MOOV+ feature. Your files never leave your device until you tap Save — the points are sent to MOOV only then, and the server re-validates everything and recomputes distance and elevation itself.
