    Default Saw the GPX Route Files for rides/rallies - which software do you recomend? (iPhone)

    I saw GPX route files on the Hot Springs rally page for download. I see that the Pro version of Rever can import these.

    Any other software that you guys use/recommend? (iPhone)

    (I'm not sure if this is the best forum or not for this -- Mods feel free to move it if there's a better one.)

    First off, I don't even have BRP connected to my phone... I gave up on it. I use a "dash" mounted phone connected my cardo in my helmet via Bluetooth.

    I also am going to the Hot Springs Rally next month, and they have .GPX files to import, but Rever requires the premium edition to do so.

    I typically just use Apple maps or Google maps for GPS guidance, and if I want to try backroads, I set "avoid highways", but that rarely accomplishes exactly what I want, and I manually select another route, etc. But I do have Rever downloaded, just haven't signed up and used it yet. Someone else suggested MyRouteApp.

    So, that's all a long intro to ask what phone app are you using to plan / track / provide nav guidance, etc. on your phones? Preferably one that allows for easy screenshots or sharing to the web/social media after it's done. Perhaps also allows for location tagged notes/photos for searching later? Also can import GPX files for runs, etc?

    I have used Scenic, Sygic and inRoute. I have subscriptions to Scenic and Sygic. They all import and export .gpx files and Scenic can import Google map routes. Free to download and try.

    I will 2nd the previous poster. MyRoute App is, in my opinion, the best all round routing app, regardless of the device.

    I used to like the Rand McNally paper maps.

    We bought a new Garmin for the trip from AK to AR in 2019. It sent me down a wrong road in Iowa and took me 20 miles out of the way before I caught the error. I have used it very little since that time.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.
