  • How to Keep Routes Consistent When Exporting to Garmin Zumo XT?

    I am Zumo XT user since few years, but just recently became MRA user (I bought Gold membership). In general MRA is exactly what I needed for as how I do routes. I do route planning on Windows Chrome webpage and minor adjustments on Chrome browser on android tablet (shortcut as an app to have full screen) that I take with me on longer few days trips. I then use andorid MRA app on my phone to export as version 1.1 and open with Garmin Drive, then bluetooth to export to Zumo XT. It works. As someone suggested, Jheath's in Zumo forum is a must-read. Also you have to have MRA gold membership because you want to use HERE maps. You have to understand the difference between VIA (MRA = hand) and SHAPPING (MRA = tear) points, also to know that adding a waypoint for a city is not just search of city in the search bar, but to add waypoint directly to the road you want to drive by in that city... and use quite a lot of waypoints for a trip. And to have similar settings (avoid hightways, etc.) with MRA and Garmin XT... A good tip is also about starting point... It should be a like 50 or 100 m in front of your actual start point so that you surely drive through it. I also noticed that Zumo XT only show limited characters of route name in a Trip Planner. But if I name the route without spaces, I get to see longer names in Zumo XT, so it is better for organizing... I am still learning, but so far... everything as planned

    Don't know which key number it is? Then I would invest in a key like this, because without a key number it will be a precious challenge I'm afraid...: [image: 1759045398143-shopping.jpeg]

    Locking this topic as it is 5 years old and refers to the old, no longer supported navigation app so it is causing confusion.

    @Tony-Wilkins Can you provide us the link to that .gpx file please. Then we can check ourselves what goes wrong. But as @Lex.Kloet.RX suspects already, it does kinda sound like the .gpx file is a track...

    Have you set the route to "MotorCycle"? If so it will not show, this is a bug that is already know to MRA. Set it to auto and it will show

    A time regulated entry is also a kind of seasonal closure. Because seasonal closure is nothting more than a collection name for all types of time regulated closures. Mountain passes is the best known type of time regulated closure (closed in the winter and open in the summer). That is why it is called seasonal closure. A maplayer should not have any effect on the routing. The map itself (OSM, TomTom or Here) does.

    I believe that you can’t skip waypoints in a track, because there are none.

    @Kudee said in Stan Länder: Die Planung ist mir schon klar, aber auf dem Mobile habe ich nur die HERE Karte und keine OSM. Bin ich falsch? Ja klar, aber HERE ist was du brauchst für Navigation in the app also.

    @richtea999 if you zoom in on the road it does look like its marked as possibly under construction [image: 1755810499318-a5129c53-16b3-4e4f-9f82-29fbcf749606-image.png] maybe would have been nicer if the Here map had highlighted this in red as it often does for other road works then again its still showing more than some of the other map overlays

    @Mike-wiruth, Like @Rainer-Treichel says, I just want to add that if you navigate tracks instead of routes, or use the "Navigate Route as Track" feature, it is advised to do that online. Doing that offline makes it less accurate.

    It all depends on how want use your navigation. For me AA or ACP is the way to go. But the navigation must meets the demands of AA or ACP. My demands for navigation are low. Just drive a route without any interfering from my side (no manual skipping waypoints, etc). These demands are perfect for AA or ACP.

    Unfortunately, this is no longer the case with many apps today. A so-called intuitive user interface is being developed. And all users just get started. And if there are problems, then you write in forums, Reddit, etc. and there are enthusiasts there to help. They do it for fun. So I'm glad that these enthusiasts are also helping so diligently here. Or often have to help because users are not used to helping themselves first. By READING! Because there is good documentation here in which the developers explain their approaches in detail and with lots of pictures. I think that should be rewarded by reading it.
