I am running stock S Health application, regularly updated via Play store.
All of a sudden I can't export .gpx file from my cycling session. After pressing Export as gpx file I get notified that the workout was exported, but there is no file in My Files. I tried denying storage permissions in settings and then enabling it back, but that doesn't help.
The other issue is with the step counter. It is extremely precise at counting steps, but the conversion from steps to kilometers is completely wrong (almost double of the real value). Is there a way to calibrate or adjust the length of a step?
Thanks for help!

GPS application for track creation

- take a photo and the gps position will be shown in the image's item name
DOWNLOAD HERE
it's a pretty good application. i used it already a lot. it allows to create tracks online, load track on mobile and cache the needed map tiles as long as you're online, such that you can navigate without needing a connection later...
online-representation is here: http://gps-tracks.com
oh, sorry. i didn't know there was an application of the same name. this is an application i wrote with the same name (unfortunately)
really? i'm so sorry, i didn't clearly read your post and followed your hyperlink, but just completed it with my post and the url to the "other" GPS Tracks...
i'm sorry I didn't realize...!
what will you do now?
Hello,
I am looking for an app, which could get and save my current location provided by GPS sensor. Sure, there are Google Maps, but i can't save my position from there.
Gps status is another great example, but there's no way to export it in some file directly. It gives me coordinates in text format, then I have to open Google Earth, create pin and enter coordinates.
I would like to have something, that would allow me to save coordinates along with specified name. For exaxmple:
I get current position, provide name: "My House", and it would export the coordinates to file named My House.txt, which would contain cordinates.
Or even better, if it were able to export KMZ / KML files for Google Earth directly.
What's my reason to this ?
I am seasonal diver, and most of the time, I dive from the boat - I would like to "bookmark" my location and then, later at home I would like to check, where exactly the boat parked on the sea / where was I diving.
Do you know any app of this kind ?
PS: it is very important for me. I am leaving for my holiday in 2 days.
Many thanks.
You may try Share my position : https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=location&fdid=net.sylvek.sharemyposition&fdpage=2 and maybe send an SMS to yourself ?
After some Play Store research, I have come to this.
So if anyone interested, check out this play store link.
It does everything, what I need. Get GPS, save it and then export in various formats - sql, csv, kml, gpx.

When I went through the threads in the forum I thought it is not possible to use the tracking data on the watch as GPX data without the help of the mobile or other external Apps.
In fact it is quite easy to do this with the watch only thus you can re-use already tracked trails or routes and redo them. The integrated Sport App will show always if you are on track.
Steps to Do within Sport App:
Open Sport App
Got to "Activities" and select a specific trail track and open (with a left swipe) the "Route" and push "Export"
Now your formerly tracked route is stored in gpx format in directory /Internal Storage/gpxdata (on the watch)
Go to "Settings" and select "Sport Trail" and select the trail you want to show in your activity
Now you can start a new activity e.g. "Trail Run" and it will show inline the selected gpx route
Of course if you have gpx routes downloaded from web you can put them directly, e.g. via explorer from PC, to /Internal Storage/gpxdata too.
It looks like below when you are on running track following the GPX route and you never get lost again

Using firmware 1.3.5 with included Sport App.
PS: I like the Sports App in specfic the GPS tracking on the watch very much. It would be even greater if the Zoom (+/- buttons) good be configured or at least set in smaller steps. Currently it jumps form 50m, 200m, 2km, 5km More intermediate steps would be very helpful e.g. 50m, 100m, 200m, 500m, 1km, 2km, 5km, 10km
hello all, I have a Stratos with the official english version. Last OTA updated. (original is the chinese version)
the problem appears when I use a downloaded GPX track, I open and follow it but the screen appears duplicated. Also the new track drawed on it appears double.... and the grid... and the scale... as you can see in the picture...
But, when I reuse a track created with the watch it doent happen this "double view"
I use this option a lot, is the most important for me..
Maybe some bug after updating due to corrupted data, you can try to fix it by erasing all data on watch and make sure you start fresh:
1. Unpair the watch while it's connected to phone so all data will be erased;
2. Logout from Amazfit app the close it, open and login again;
3. Pair watch again but do NOT restore old data.
Then restart watch and copy your GPX data back to it. You can also check if the GPX file is OK by importing it to some other service like:

ok i will try, thank you very much
I had the same problem, I found that the problem is the size of the track name defined inside the gpx file with the label <name><\name>. I calculated that if it has more than 32 characters it generates a second line in the name inside the track visualiser and did this double track effect.
The solution, a little bit annoying... Open the gpx with code editor or txt editor, reduce the name and save it before upload the gpx file to the watch
Hello,
is it possible to edit the GPS trail directly in Amazfit app? Yesterday, when I was running, GPS made a quick jump and added me nearly 1 km to my trail...
I can do it in Runkeeper, but I would like to have the correct values in Amazfit as well...
The same thing happened to me a couple of days ago. My Pace GPS jumped me a few km away and then got the correct position a few minutes later. In all, it added 5 km to my route.
Currently it's not possible. You can however export the activity as GPX (or use AmazeBackup to export data to GPX or TCX), edit the file and then import it manually to a third party service like Strava or Endomondo. You can check the exported file using this web app: mygpsfiles.com.

Thanks, I know all this, what I miss is the possibility to import it back to Stratos...
You could edit the SQLite Database.
Look at the export thread in this forum how to get it
