Which format to use when downloading offline routes

[Roger Needham 0]

Hi, when i select a route to download a scroll window opens up indicating multiple file format to chose from (the first being Sync)
i am using MRA to Navigate as well as route build, so was wondering which is the ideal format to use?
thanks

@Roger-Needham-0 If you're using MRA to navigate you don't have to download the routes. Just make shure that the sync option is on. That applies also to offline navigation

@Roger-Needham-0 as @Marinus-van-Deudekom says, if you are using MRA for navigation make sure the "Sync all my routes" option is enabled/checked it simplifies things greatly,
you find it is under the three dots in the navigation app > routes & tracklogs section

You then don't have to worry about downloading files or file formats because all your routes in the web planner are also available (synced) in the "Routes & Tracklogs" section of the navigation app

It is probably one of the best features MRA has introduced, no need to worry about garmin drive, thread, tomtom sync, gpx1.1 v gpx1.2, it just works seamlessly with pretty much zero effort

@Roger-Needham-0 in the MyRoute-App on your phone:

• open a route
• tap on 3 dots in top right corner
• select in the context menue: sync all routes

The first time, it will last a couple of minutes (depending on amount of your routes). But later on, each new or updated route will be synched in seconds. And the amount of transmitted date is really less.
That's really the fun point: you can plan routes on PC, take your phone just online, and immediately the route is automatically synched to your phone (you don't need to do anything) - and you can start navigation! No manual file transfer is needed.
