App: Locus Map Classic
Version: 3.68.0
Phone: Android Pixel 6 Pro

I'm unable to import the attached GPX file (You cannot view this attachment.). It will work sometimes, but very intermittently.

Steps to reproduce:
- Open Locus
- Go to My Library
- Click on the 3-dots icon next to my folder "Imported"
- Choose Import.
- Click on "System File Manager"
- Go to the Downloads directory (in my case, where the attached file is)
- Click on the file.

Expected result:
- Locus would parse the file and show me a dialog asking where to save this track.

Actual result:
- Most of the time, Locus just goes back to the "My Library" screen without having imported anything (maybe a crash somewhere)?
- If I keep trying it, Android tells me "Locus keeps crashing" and asks me if I want to terminate the app.

And now for the weird part:

I tested a lot and decided to import an existing export from Locus. Everything worked correctly. I then copied the attached file into another one and edited that new file, replacing the <gpx xmlns> tag and all its contents with the contents from one exported from Locus. At that point, the import worked. I started to edit the file and remove components from the gpx tag, one by one, and eventually, even without any of the components I added, it still worked!

At that point, attempting to load the original file again worked, but a few minutes later it failed again.

Very puzzling indeed.

Hope this reports help and I can help with debugging if you need it.

Thanks in advance.
