How to import a .gpx file to create a route ?

On the Website

• On the Routes page at Geovelo.app
• Click on the Import GPX button on the left-hand side of the page
• Make sure you select "Import a route"
• Once the file is uploaded, click Import

On the App

From My Favorites

• In the "Routes" tab
• Tap the floating "Add a route" button at the bottom of the screen
• Tap "Browse" to open your file explorer and select the .gpx file
• If prompted, choose Import to create a route
• Enter a title for your route

From My Profile

• In the "Rides" tab
• Tap the blue "+" button at the bottom right
• Tap "Browse" to open your file explorer and select the .gpx file
• Choose Import for activity tracking to add the ride to your stats

From the .gpx file itself:

• Open your file explorer and tap on the .gpx file
• Choose "Open with" → Geovelo
• The file will load directly into the app, and you can choose "Import for activity tracking"

When importing .gpx files, you can import two types of files:

• A route you want to plan/save: choose Import to create a route (you will need to save it to access it later in the app)
• A ride recorded with another app: choose Import for activity tracking (this will add to your statistics)
