<![CDATA[Allow for acceptance of apple app “send to windy” of fpl and gpx files]]>Allow the acceptance of FPL (ForeFlight) and GPX (Garmin pilot) data file of another app such as ForeFlight and Garmin Pilot for routes by the Apple “send to” functionality. Allows easily to visualise the route planned.

It’s half implemented for GPX files where they can be saved to a location and then loaded into Windy. Doesn’t work for FPL files (ForeFlight is largest EFB app on market).

So two requests

  1. Enable acceptance of sent to function in Windy
  2. Enable FPL data route / coordinate files

Sorry just to add to this, there might be multiple waypoints in the route (for when drawing the line). Also ideally Windy would also set the time/date to the eta-zulu date to align with the proposed flight ETA.

Supported by all the electronic flight plan apps and allows for direct push from Foreflight (and others Avplan EFB, Garmin Pilot)

Example below: (Sorry about the image as the forum doesn't allow attachments.):
