No Garmin Drive option

[A Former User]

I use a Garmin XT as well as the mobile app for the car but if I want to download a route from the web site to load onto the Garmin I don't get the option of opening with Garmin Drive to send to the satnav and it goes straight to the Myroute mobile app.

@Brian-Martin Export a 1.1 gpx file and then open it with Garmin Drive

@Marinus-van-Deudekom it would be a great feature to export directly to Garmin Drive. I think the app had been created for use as an app stand alone. The possibility to export a gpx file is an extra. Maybe one of the Developers could comment on this and maybe they could a possibility like this in the future

@Brian-Martin
When I use the app on the iPhone, I open a route. Then I choose save as GPX 1.1 and in the next screen I choose export. After that I have the choice to use Garmin Drive.
I don't have a Garmin myself and can't check it further. But with the BMW Connected App it works.

@Jack-van-Tilburg you don't have to save it as gpx file just push the download button click on export, as gpx 1.1 and then open it. Then you get the screen Jack showed and click on the Drive button easy peasy

Not in my case. The first option is Offline availability.

@Jack-van-Tilburg and the second in your screen .gpx 1.1

Ah now I see the misunderstanding
I wrote "save" and that was wrong. I stand corrected

I used to be able to send direct to Garmin Drive and thence my XT. Having upgraded to Navigator I find the same as the above - I have to save it first, then open it with Drive.
