exactly what I was having trouble with, thanks for the video!

I was stumbling and stuck on how to get turn by turn navigation from a GPX file, much appreciated. Thank you.

Glad the video helped. Before the developers improved it, this was a lot harder.

Thanks Bart. Excellent information as usual.

Thanks Barry. I was happy to see OsmAnd add the ability to “snap” a GPX to the underlying map. Previously, people assumed that would happen and were unhappy and/or confused when it didn’t.

Does anyone know why when I record my hike the gpx track records as several broken red lines instead of one continuous one?

[@barteisenberg]

If the broken lines are randomly spread out, the problem might be with the precision of your phone GPS. If they are aligned in a route, but broken, it may have to do with your recording settings on OsmAnd. Do you have any other app on the same device that you could record a GPX and compare the results?
