Open GPX Files from Google Disk
Quote from maxviking on 31.01.2022, 13:46For some strange reason i'm not getting the "Scenic" as an option in "Open In" in Google Disk... Is there any way to tell IOS that Scenic is an app that can open Google Disk stored GPX files ?
Appreciate any help

It works with all other apps, but indeed I just checked and it doesn't work with the Google Drive app. I will investigate why and correct if necessary. Meanwhile, what you could do, is access your Google Drive via the iOS files app and open the GPX from there. Then Scenic will show up in the list of apps.

Quote from Guido on 31.01.2022, 16:06OK. Did some more research. This is more of a bug in Google Drive than it is in Scenic. Google Drive marks GPX files as regular XML files. Scenic will only open files that are actually (marked as) GPX file. In the next update I have configured Scenic to also open regular XML files... so it will now show in the list when "open in" from Google Drive is selected. Next update will be released in about 2 weeks.

Interestingly it worked under the Scenic 2, and thank you for the heads up on the next update. Cheers.
