GPX Export: Backup, Share, and Migrate

GPX export is the easiest way to keep an offline backup or move your data elsewhere.

If GPX is central to your planning workflow, see GPX Route Planner.

What gets exported

Depending on options, TrailNote can export:

  • Routes (as GPX tracks)
  • Markers (as GPX waypoints)

Recommended workflow

  • Export at the end of a trip
  • Store a copy in cloud storage
  • Use the file as a portable archive of your project
