Hi

Can somebody please tell me what is wrong with the GPX file below that would give the error "Error reading GPX data" when I try to open it with OsmAnd+ on my Nexus 6P?

Thanks

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>

<gpx version="1.1" creator="OsmAnd+" xmlns="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Thanks Peter B, I have now discovered that if I choose the file from Dropbox OsmAnd will open it but choosing from my file manager results in the error.

Any idea why that might be?

I suppose it is a problem of rights within the file system. Which android version do you use ?

Are the files you want to use on the internal memory or on a (external) micro sd card ?
...and sorry, but I cant help on android 7.
But the above requested info will help other guys...

Internal memory, no SD card on Nexus 6P

If you are correct and it is a rights issue, any thoughts on where I would start looking?
