Hello Locus team,
I would like to request that Locus Map appears as a target in the Android share menu when a GPX file is shared from another app.
Current behaviour:
- In Garmin Explore (Android), I share a track/course/activity as a GPX file.
- The share menu lists other apps, but not Locus Map.
- If I first save the file to Downloads and then choose "Open with" > Locus Map, the import works fine. So the file itself is OK.
Requested behaviour:
- Locus Map accepts GPX files via the share menu (ACTION_SEND), so I can import them directly from Garmin Explore and similar apps without saving the file first.
It may be that Garmin Explore sends the file with a MIME type that Locus does not currently accept (for example application/octet-stream or application/gpx+xml), so it would be great if you could check which types are covered.
Details:
- Locus Map version: 4.36.1
- Garmin Explore version: 4.17.1
- Android version / phone model:17 / samsung s25 ultra
Thank you for your time and for the great app.
