      When I want to upload a gpx file to the ios MRA app there is no such function?
      How can I upload this to my folder and update and navigate the gpx file?

      It seems the app has very limited functionality and/or there are unnecessary functions or unimportant functions such as routes from others. Can I change my layout in the app and toggle out these annoying functions?

      Cheers

        @Gerrit-van-Kuilenburg You should import the route through MRA Routeplanner (the website, so to speak). Once you've imported the route there, it's immediately usable in the app on your phone. Before you start navigating, it's advisable to double-check whether all waypoints are placed in the middle of the road and positioned logically! If a waypoint is positioned too close to an intersection or road junction, or shortly before or after a roundabout, it may cause the voice instructions to fail.

        Regarding the app's layout, here's the following: the start screen is fixed. You don't change anything there. However, you can customize the layout of your navigation screen to a significant extent according to your preferences.

          If the GPX file is accessible on your iPhone, you can tap it. A text file will appear and the icon for sharing it will appear at the bottom left of the screen. If you tap on it, you will see a number of Apps and among them is the MyRoute App.

            @Jack-van-Tilburg Yes, that's a good point! I had forgotten about that. However, you do run the risk of waypoints not being positioned correctly. Of course, you can also check the waypoints through the app, but doing it via the website is much faster and easier.

              @Rob-Verhoeff Hi, I am new to MRA and also faced this issue. I received a GPX-file (via WhatsApp). Then I sent it to the MRA app and wanted to save it in my routes, but this is not possible. It opens, so that I could directly navigate, but there's no option to save it in own routes. I think this is a missing feature.
              I had to first save it to my device (iPhone) and afterwards import it into MRA via the website.
              It works, but it is a bit cumbersome.
              Cheers,
              Thomas

                @Thomas-Keßler From the app choose Route lab and then choose Upload to add the route to your library.

                  @Nick-Carthew yeah, but to be able to upload it I first need to save it to my device. I would prefer to send the gpx file to the app e.g. from WhatsApp and on the map that is opened with the route save it to my library directly.
                  Your proposal is not different to what I initially wrote, or?
