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

| The import of .gpx files is now available on the website and the app!

### On the Website
* On the **Routes** page at [Geovelo.app](https://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)

|| It is currently **not possible to import multiple GPX files at once.**
