IOS 13.1.3 compatible??

[Jonathan Fasman]

OsmAndMaps is not an option any more to upload files in my iPhone Xs, spoke to Apple Support and they said OsmAndMaps might not have updated to be compatible with IOS 13. Anyone know if this is so?

Hi Jonathan,

I had some difficulties to open GPX files in osmand (iOS) after installing up to 13.1.2.

IMO two findings are causing this:

1/ In iOS 13+ the os handles files and files extensions in a different way as before. A reason may be a tighter connection to Siri. And another more connection to automating tasks. Take a look at personalizing tasks and wonder how powerful this feature is. As a result, apps that doesn’t support iOS 13 fully will have problems, f.e. do not appear as a suggestion in the Open In menu. 

2/ Some apps aren’t compliant to ios 13 yet and can’t handle file extensions properly. 

Both apply to Osmand. End of October an update will be released that’s hopefully more compliant. 

Up to then you’ve to use several tricks.  The following three I got from the osmand support team:

First please check that you have installed latest iOS 13 version, after that, you can try to install other application that supports GPX and delete it, it may help. If it doesn't help, you can import tracks by connecting your device to Mac or PC with iTunes installed, and copy GPX in OsmAnd Maps Documents folder, after that, open OsmAnd - My places - Trips - All trips - Import. Also, you can try to reinstall OsmAnd, but don't forget to backup your data.

 Fortunately for me this week 2 things happened: the other gps app I’m using TopoGPS updated to ios13. And iOS 13.1.3 was released. After installing both osmand was possible to read GPX files using the Open In dialogue. 

Success!

Seems that this problem is back again. When trying to ulpoad a .GPX file attached to an email, I can see the symbol of OsmAnd Mapps and the copy-file-instruction, but it leeds in a matter of seconds to the message "importer un voyage impossible d'importer le fichier GPX spécifié".

Too bad...

My version of ios is 13.5.1 and i just uploaded the OSMAND APP...

I just successfully displayed a GPX created in the Android version of OsmAnd on an iPhone X running iOS 13.5.1  & OsmAnd 3.14. I sent it via email.
