I’m wondering if there are any good foss apps for connecting to a garmin bike computer (520) to transfer GPX files?
I used to use Komoot to generate my routes, and then their garmin app would download them from my account. This isn’t very foss, so I was looking for some better tools to make this work.
I was planning to use OsmAnd to create the route file, but then after that I would have to use Garmin Connect to transfer the file. (and with storage sandboxing, that would be very fiddly)
Any tips?
I thought I wa going to get a garmin computer, and was worried about using it with only Linux devices to hand, but my fairphone 4 and a good portable charger/power pack can keep me on the road for a week running OSMAnd~. A tip: load your GPX files as tracks instead of using the navigation, just follow the red line, it saves a fraction of battery! 😁
Nice one! Do you have some sort of mount for your phone?
Yeah, its just a generic phone bag thing with a clip though, i picked it up in a supermarket
