Description

PLEASE, TEST FIRST IF IT WILL WORK FOR YOU BY USING THE COMPANION GPS PROTOCOLS APP - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.michalbures.garmin.protocols

IF THE APP CAN'T CONNECT TO YOUR GPS please check with USB Device Info app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=aws.apps.usbDeviceEnumerator) if your Android device can see the GPS connected. If yes, then please send contents of the app log (top right menu button) to support@bures.io, so I can try to figure out what is the problem.

GPS Transfer allows you to transfer tracks, routes and waypoints between your Garmin GPS and your Android device.

GPS Transfers supports both Ozi Explorer's formats (waypoint (.wpt) and track file (.plt)) and the GPX format.

To find out if GPS Transfer is compatible with your devices please use the companion app GPS Protocols - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.michalbures.garmin.protocols

You can also use USB Device Info app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=aws.apps.usbDeviceEnumerator) to check if your Android device can see the connected GPS.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★This program used to work like a dream for all my Garmin devices and cellphones but I have come back to it recently using an LG6 and the cellphone will only recognise the units in USB mode.

1 ★Not supporting foretrex 601. Not cool, when you call something a garmin up loader then you need to cover their product line. The foretrex is one of garmin biggest sellers. Very disappointing indeed. Developers you need to keep current with new products or inform customers that this no longer supports product from xx.xx.xxxx onwards!

5 ★Works perfectly with a Garmin GPSmap 60CSX and a Galaxy S5. I've really wanted this for a long time for Geocaching, since in close quarters my GPS is more accurate than my phone. Update: Since installing this app, an OS update from Samsung and/or AT&T has broken it. It appears to be a problem with Android 5.1.1 on the Galaxy S5 (at least the AT&T version). (Second update: It is fixed on 6.0.1. The remainder of this comment describes how Michal tried to help when it was broken.) Michal was very helpful when I reported the problem; he sent me a debugging version of the app, which was able to isolate the problem. It appears to be a USB problem; a google search shows others having the same problem with other apps on Galaxy S5 running Android 5.1.1. Unfortunately, he did not have a fix. Surprisingly, the app works fine on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4, also running Android 5.1.1, so it appears to be specific to the S5. I am going to leave my original 5 star rating, as the problem was caused by Samsung or AT&T, and Michal did try to help. But I would definitely recommend testing with GPS Protocols before buying this app; it exhibits the same failure.

5 ★Works for tracks and routes with Garmin 64S with Asus ZenPad 8. Had first difficulty in connecting due to default setting of GPS for mass storage instead of 'Garmin spanner' setting. Trick is to boot GPS fully before connecting, then select 'no'. Excellent support by Michal.
