How do I download all data?

johnpooley3

Hi, 

I would like to download an archive of all of my data, preferably in a ZIP file. How can I do so? Is there a way for me to have a backup emailed monthly? 

Thanks,

John Pooley

    I would also like to download all of my data since the app is not functioning properly since the recent update and I'm thinking I may need to delete and reload it.

    @fivefri

    Please email us at support@gaiagps.com and we can help you troubleshoot this issue.

    You can download all your data by adding it all to a folder and exporting the folder.  This is most easily done on www.gaiagps.com.

    Here are the steps:

    1. Sync all of your data to the website by opening the app and tapping Settings > Account > Last Sync.
    2. Log in to gaiagps.com and add all of your data to a folder: Managing Folders on gaiagps.com
    3. Export the folder as a GPX: Export data from gaiagps.com

    If you need to do this in the app, here are the instructions:

    1.  Add data to a folder: Managing Folders on Android
    2.  Export folder: Export Tracks and Waypoints to GPX or KML via Email, Dropbox, etc. in Android

    @Jim I appreciate your response and am glad to hear that this is now possible. Could you please file a feature request to have this functionality available without having to put everything in a folder every time we want to make a backup? A button in the Settings area would be sufficient. Thanks!

    A full backup of all data to Dropbox or other cloud service should be available by default in this day and age without having to monkey around. Any time soon?

    Export as GPX?!? I want to export all of this stuff individually to have a backup, not get a giant GPX blob of many years of routes.

    Please have the back end package the folder up as a zip, with the folder structure of the folder selected for backup, then download the zip, so we can use it in the file system.

    PS: Here's the exported GPX of years worth of tracked data (TLDR: It's an XML error blob.)

    Here's another failure on a smaller folder. (This is the entire content of the exported file.)

    <?xml version="1.0" ?><gpx xmlns="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1" creator="GaiaGPS" version="1.1" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1 http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/gpx.xsd"/>
