Sharing and Importing GPX data

 

 

 

 

In addition to the Cloud Sync feature, Memory-Map has other powerful tools to help you backup and manage your overlay data and share data with other apps.

First, you can save your data in named GPX files.

To do this, click the List Overlays menu command, Tap-and-hold or Right-click on the Category or individual overlay item you wish to save, and Export (or Share on mobiles)

After saving the data all the important data in the app as GPX files, you might want use the Overlays List, Menu to Discard All. This deletes all Marks Routes or Tracks currently loaded in memory. It does not delete the saved files.

Later, you might want to re-load the set of data you saved. Touch Menu and Import in the Overlays List.

If you are using multiple categories, you can tap-and-hold or Right-click on a category, and use the Import Here menu command to import GPX data under that category.

If you have collected some data on the iPhone, and you want to store or analyze it on your desktop computer or another device, we recommend using the Cloud Sync feature.

When you export data, you can share it using AirDrop, email, Google Drive, or transfer it to any other app on the device that understands GPX data.

GPX is a open file format supported by all Memory-Map's software as well as many other tools. For example you can transfer the overlay data to a Garmin GPS, to use as a backup for your iPhone. The GPX data does not include the map images.

There are also many websites that allow you to share trails and so on, using the GPX format.

If you receive a GPX file as an attachment in an email, you can tap on it, and the mail app may give you the option to open it with Memory-Map. However, we can not guarantee that Memory-Map for All will show up in the "Open With..." list.  If it is not in the list, just save it as a file, then use the Import command in the app to open that file.
