I’m wondering if there are any good foss apps for connecting to a garmin bike computer (520) to transfer GPX files?

I used to use Komoot to generate my routes, and then their garmin app would download them from my account. This isn’t very foss, so I was looking for some better tools to make this work.

I was planning to use OsmAnd to create the route file, but then after that I would have to use Garmin Connect to transfer the file. (and with storage sandboxing, that would be very fiddly)

Any tips?

(also sorry, don’t know how to crosspost)

    On mobile? No, I don’t know any. On a pc you can just transfer all the fit files. Garmin doesn’t record in gpx, they record in their own format called fit. They have an open source tool to convert to gpx or csv.

    I’ve also made !garmin@lemmy.ca

    I have used GoldenCheetah in the past for syncing with my wahoo and bryton computers, I think it should work for Garmin too? Not sure about generating and uploading the files through it though
