RE Naming an imported route

I have imported a couple routes from Google Maps. I put the Route name and route description in but they do not show up once imported to app.

Is there a way to rename routes?

 

Thanks

Keith

Hi Keith,

That's strange. The route name should show up. First in the import queue and later when you save the ride, it should take the route name you entered in the WebApp as the default value. During what part do you not see the route name you entered in the WebApp anymore?

To change a route name, select the route from your list and then tap on the name at the top, or tap at the "A⏐Edit" button.

Cheers,
Guido

Thank you!

I will try some more imports to see if the name comes in properly.

I will let you know either way.

Awesome program

Your response is super impressive!!!

Okay, I created several trips on Google maps and all works well. The trips I had an issue with were sent to me from another rider. The name shows correctly on the import queue list. When you select the trip it processes the file contents and that is where I see the title change to " directions from ***** to ***** instead of the title or name.

It must be something with the way the other rider saved the file from Google maps, because I cannot re-create the issue I was having with those files.

Again great job!

OK. The import queue shows the filename or the GPX name (inside the GPX), but when you tap an entry in the import queue it processes the file and if it finds a route name that will overrule the file or the file name in the GPX.

Thanks so much, it is easy enough to change the name when this type of thing occurs. 🙂
