Importing From Saved File on Device (Mobile)

Modified on Fri, 20 Dec, 2024 at 7:30 AM

Before You Begin: Export a backup of all data and save it in a secure and easily accessible location. For the app, store a copy in your phone's files or email it to yourself for future reference. This ensures you can preserve your data and recover from any unintended changes or errors.

 

  1. Waypoints Tab

The Waypoints Tab displays the available Waypoint Lists for management.


  1. Import from Saved File on Device
    • Follow Manufacturer’s instructions to export waypoints manually to an SD Card. GPX is the preferred file storage type.
    • From the Dashboard, Click the Upload Waypoints icon (+)
    • Determine if you’d like to create a new list or upload to an existing list. For a new list, click Select File, navigate to the saved file to upload.

  3. Alternatively, the file can be shared to the app by utilizing the share feature ((a square with an up arrow) and selecting the OnMyMarks app icon.

Note: This feature is particularly useful to send and receive files as needed. Suggested uses include sharing waypoint lists, organizing different lists for specific purposes, or safeguarding data in case of loss.


  1. Import from CSV and Column Mapping
    1. On My Marks has the capability to import CSV files with specified column mapping to identify which columns alight with corresponding fields in GPS software, (latitude, longitude, name, description, etc)
    2. Best Practice – assign column headers to the CSV File prior to import for easier mapping.
