Importing GPX into Tread - greyed out

Post by stefzn »

I'm having issues with importing a GPX file into the Tread app, I've never had this happen before.

I made a route on calimoto's website and I exported it as GPX, transferred that GPX to my iPhone and when I click "Share" the Tread app is not there, I was like okay let me try directly from the Tread app.

Open Tread -> Saved -> Three Dots -> Import Data (GPX) and the GPX file in my File Manager is greyed out.

Anyone dealing with this?

This is my route

I email gpx files, produced in Basecamp, and then select the attachment to open a,d my Android phone asks me what app to use. I select Tread and it opens up ok. Might that work for you?

Try my GPX, see if it works for you.

Downloaded your gpx to my phone. Went to open it and Tread was one option. See below for what I see it showing.

Hope this helps.

So it's an iPhone bug then.

The easy bit is working out what the bug is, a whole exponential extra level of difficulty in getting Garmin to acknowledge it and fix it.

Be aware that if you do report it they'll probably want a video of the problem occurring.
