How to display saved KML or GPX route on ipad or mobile app?

Suty

@luizjr4 Hello, I am not sure about the cause of this issue, however, I tested the behavior and it was completely okay.

Open Windy.com favorite list on the desktop and mobile
I added route to favs on my mobile
Refresh Windy on the desktop and new route appeared immediately

What version of Windy do you use on your mobile/tablet?

@Suty Hi Suty, thanks for your reply, this way the route indeed appears on favorites but not the routes saved previously uploaded from a KML or GPX file.

Of course your routes saved as KML or GPX files are not directly displayed in your favorites.
You have first to load them in the Route planner on the device where they are stored and then to save them as favorites.

@idefix37 I've never said my routes were saved in my favourites, I upload and load'em when I need it, in theory they're on windy' server somewhere. But there's no option to load those routes in the app! At least I didn't't find it.
Couldn't find the option to add the route as Favorite, maybe Windy's team could create an Fav icon next to the GPX uploaded file.

As I mentioned earlier, to make routes available on all devices linked to the same account, you need to save them as favorites. But if you prefer not to do it, that's your choice.

@idefix37 how can I do that? It doesn't seem to be possible to load an GPX route and save as favorite.

You said

I have many routes saved in my Windy page on laptop

Load them in your laptop and save them as favorites.
So simple !

@idefix37 @luizjr4 I am not sure, if you two understand each other. I guess that @idefix37 means to open your GPX file in the Distance and planning tool in Windy and then you can save this route as a favorite, so you can access this route then on all your devices, since we don't provide GPX and KML uploaded files in our mobile interface.

Yes it is what I mean. Thank you.

@idefix37 @suty thanks for your reply, I did understand what @idefix37 was saying but disagreed a bit that It was simple to do. What I meant was that; from the routes I've already uploaded from my laptop through is not possible to load and mark them as favorites, there's no option for that! However I have tested loading a gpx file from my windy app on my ipad and then add it to favorites as I upload it, doing this way it does show in favorites! So it means that I have to upload again all the routes already loaded using my laptop's browser.
In in one of my comments I have put a similar screen print like this (I've put this fav btn!) giving the idea of placing an favorite button so after uploadin an KML or GPX file the user can also mark it as favorite.
Would like to thank you guys so much for answering my question.
