GPX Import into SA - How To Guide (Android)
-
The only problem I’m facing is the never-ending save process on this “imported” routes that can result in several duplicates (when you try to save again)
edit : It seems that in fact the “save” works, but the spinning wheel keeps spinning
and the “issue” is global and not only related to “imported” routes -
@stromdiddily @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Can the title be changed to indicate Android as this is not possible for iOS? or tagged as I am sure many will work at reading through prior to figuring this out.

Thanks, from an envious iPhone user! @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos

I can confirm it works fine. And the greatest thing is that when you have both iOS and Android phone, you can import the route on Android and then sync it via App on iOS as the route appears in both Apps (so no need to pair your watch with different app). I suppose the import feature will be soon available on iOS as well but it is nice to have

A great new !!
It’s a really usefull functionnality that missed.
One question however: it seems that waypoint added on the route disappears when opening the .gpx file in SA.
And I did not found the way to add or create waypoints on route directly on the route editor in SA.That’s too bad for now. The ETA or ETE to waypoints fields on the watch are still useless.
Maybe soon in a new update ?

How can I import a route from gpx?No button, you must download GPX file and try to open it from your file explorer and, if questioning, ordering to open with SA.

@ColdBeer I thought it was something new. I did that with mine last week.
-
@Jonathan-Newby Yeah me too. But now it’s maybe official? Or I don’t know
However I haven’t found any other option -
Even after the 3.53 update the Suunto App still isn’t selectable as Open With… app for me. Tried several file explorers, but no luck.

I mentioned it in another thread and got asked to post about it. Seems like it only works for some which may be why it was kept under wraps

Please post here for GPX import that doesn’t work.

Hi,
First of all I’m very glad I found this forum and this post. Googling for GPX import for SA is very unsuccessful…I have SA v3.54.3 and I exported a route manually created in movescount to GPX. Opening this GPX on phone (oneplus2 android 9) does open the SA but remains still just showing a zoomed out worldmap.
Just to try if it worked with another GPX I exported a route from Strava run by some random person. Opening this on the same phone configuration opened the SA and within seconds showed me the option to save the route.
Is there something special I have to do to Movescount (exported) route to make it a valid import?

You shouldn’t, but you can try (if not already done) to enable BT and connect watch before importing the GPX.
That version of SA sometimes get stuck during saving (an maybe import) if not connected to the watchyou can also check this : https://forum.suunto.com/topic/1476/gpx-import-doesn-t-work-for-you-post-here
