GPX1.2 & Garmin Tread

[Carl Lee]

The latest Tread update 3.01.27 for iOS now does not calculate GPX1.2 again. The previous version did.

Has anyone else noticed this and discovered a workaround? I have logged a ticket both through Tread mapping issues and Garmin customer support. To say I am disappointed is an understatement.

I realise this is probably more of a Garmin issue, but it involves an MRA specific file.

Thank you.

The only file transfer that works 100% of the time is manually copying the GPX file to your Garmin device. Tread has and always will be a potential problem. It's not what you want to hear, but the reality of the situation.

@john-s-parry yes, you’re right and I do copy files on to my SD card. 1.2 files still work that way without being corrupted by Tread. I’ve checked and even though what syncs to Tread looks wrong, the route in the XT2 calculates and remains true.

It’s another string to the bow that has snapped. Again!
