The official instructions say to:

Go to: Menu → Settings → Import/export → Import

There is no import/export option in Settings; only “import profile”, which surely must be different than a GPX file.

These instructions seem viable, but in my case tapping “+” asks: “complete action using Documents [just once] [always]”. That is bizarre. I chose just once because the other choice (Aria) is certainly wrong for me. Then I am forced to choose between:

  • Recent
  • Videos
  • Audio
  • Downloads

I cannot navigate to the file. I must choose one of those. There is no “Downloads” folder. There is a “Download” directory but it has different files than what OSMand sees.

It’s really irritating. Simple selection of a file should not be fucked up in this way. I tried putting the GPX file in storage/sdcard1/Video/, but that directory is not the same as wherever the concealed “Videos” directory is.
