Feedback Export GPS File

kukubau

I just wanted to chime in as I am unable to export my last workout to GPX format. I’ve read all your comments and the pros vs. the cons. I do need the option to save my workouts/moves as *.GPX not just as *FIT.

In the three dots (…) dialog I have the

Edit
Save Route
Export as FIT file
Cancel

options available.

I was able to export the move as *.FIT, however, when I tried to import it in Movescount, I got this error message:

@2nd, you stated in other comments that choosing the Save option, one would be able to save it as a *.GPX file. After confirming the Save, by pressing the DONE button, I am shown another dialog to enter the route’s name, but by choosing to SAVE I did NOT get another dialog to browse to the save location and to save the file.

No other file was created on my iphone (iphone 7 ios 13.6), Suunto app v.1.40.0

@kukubau after you save the route, you can press “share” and download the GPX. At least it works on Android.

@isazi

Thanks, but this option is missing on ios and looks like an ios bug.

@kukubau I am sure it’s not missing :-d

@kukubau It is not missing, use the share button to share a link to the activity, from the link you can download a gpx file.

kukubau

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos For me it’s missing. Below are consecutive screenshots, trying all options.

isazi

@kukubau that’s your activity though. Did you make a route out of it first?

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@kukubau create a route , name it

Go to your routes -> share -> copy link (has download for the GPX)

I guess his problem is this one

So definitely the wrong thread

You didn’t understand my issue. I want to export my previous activity to *.GPX format from within the Suunto app (like saving the *.FIT file) as I was able to do from Movescount due to the fact that is no SuuntoLink web based application and Movescount will be discontinued.

Having the *.FIT save option available, it is a matter of common sense, for the development team to offer the user the option to save the activity to a generally accepted format like *.GPX.

It defies the purpose.

@sartoric
Yes, that’s my problem and no this is not the wrong thread.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos

Why would I want to create a new route to copy an already performed activity to be able to save it as *.GPX?!? This is user unfriendly and very counter intuitive.
On the other hand, route creation has its purpose, I will not deny it.

Once you are here

you should save your “My route” and once saved, you may have the option to Share this “My route” route.
And this sharing will give you a link to download GPX.
Workout --> Saveto Route --> Share saved route = GPX

well … we could discuss about it

the OP asked for Feedback Export GPS File maybe a typo maybe not, but the OP never replied

and then things become FIT vs GPX for activity

and @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos said

The app exports:

GPX:

Workouts as routes
Routes created in the app
FIT:

Workouts

In fact you cannot export GPX for an activity , only FIT files

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Thank you for your help.

I was a big Suunto fan and I’ve praised Suunto sport watches to everyone that was planning on buying a sport/smart watch. Sadly, this moment is the moment when I will leave Suunto for good and do my business elsewhere.

Suunto, you have become such a Disappointment.

Bummer! See my previous reply.

Bye Suunto, 5 Suunto watches later!

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@kukubau because of the GPX ? For realz? Like GPX are now obsolete files only used by routing mostly. Most important they lack the valuable info your watch records etc.

I don’t know man. If you are going to leave Suunto for a GPX export good luck.

Thanks

@kukubau you’ve been provided with a workaround, you don’t like it, but don’t pretend it doesn’t work (like you did for messages on end).

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos @Mff73
Once I save “My Route”, shouldn’t I find “My Route” saved somewhere on my phone or within the Suunto app?

Well, I can’t find “My Route” not within the Suunto app, nor as a file in my iphone storage. Once I click SAVE, this dialog closes and I’m back to screen 1 (picture 1 from the print screens I’ve posted).

This is something that I wanted to ask previously.
Thanks.
