@mark-hooton I would spend as much time as possible learning the nuances between the navigation app and Carpuride and your Garmin. Better to discover on familiar ground than whilst touring.

Just got this reply back from Garmin regarding the borked drive app. After I called them I uploaded an email with a pictorial description of the issues the the current version of the Drive app had caused. I think that a fair few people had contacted them about the issue which was good, as it will hopefully be resolved soon.

Thank you for your email.

This issue will be resolved in an upcoming Drive app update. We'll notify you via email once the new version is available for download in Google Play.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,

I have received more or less the same answers from the German and Dutch Garmin CS

From last night a new version of the app is available. 4.29.28

Having used the app for me there appears to still be a bit of an issue with a refresh of the app before it functions to transfer a file. I initially could not get the app to function but found that opening a second instance of the app then closing it initiated the send function. Previously the app opened and the send file function was initiated after a request to share a file was initiated. I have subsequently found that minimising the app then opening it again also causes the app to work. I have no Idea if this is associated with a setting on my phone or its a bug in the new iteration. I sent this reply to Garmin last night when I finally got the app to transfer routes. I haven't received a reply yet.

Further to my last e-mail. I can get the app to work but to get the app to recognise the file to be transferred I have to share the file with the drive app.....nothing happens. If I the open a second instance of the drive app then close it the file dialog appears in the first instance of the Drive app and it transfers to the ZumoXT.

Hope this helps?

I had to restart the app and now everything is working fine, tablet and phone.

Ik was reeds terug gegaan naar een vorige versie en ga die denk ik nog wat houden, tenzij er een meerwaarde is aan de nieuwe versie. Wat mag die dan eventueel zijn?

@Kobutex-Motorreizen Can you explain how I can get my routes to my Zumo XT using a cable? I'm leaving this Saturday and have all my routes on my phone, but like to have them on the garmin too. Especially if it's raining. How do I do it?
Thanks very much for your help.

@Mike-wiruth Connect your Garmin to your computer.
Drag or copy the GPX file to the GPX folder on your Garmin.

On a Mc use an SD-card, not a cable.
