How to transfer GPX files using an iPad, iPhone, Android device etc

[+Cptnodegard]

I read this topic where someone is wondering how you can transfer GPX files from an iPad to a GPS receiver. The thread never gave an answer and had a lot of confusing guesswork so I decided to do a video to show how to do it.

 

Now, this requires an accessory called the airstash. It's $99, and it's a battery powered SD card reader that lets you access the content over Wifi. It creates its own Wifi network so you don't have to be near anything, you just need the AirStash and an iPad, iPhone, etc. Should also work with Android though most of those devices can do this directly so that's sort of a moot point.

 

How does it work? Well, I made a video to show you. Again, I don't have an Airstash, but the only difference from what I'm doing in the video to what you would do is that the WebDAV account you transfer to at the end is on the AIrstash, not box.net. ANyways, here's the video:

Hope it helps someone.

Quite the pricy card reader rofl.

Yeah, but in all fairness it has a battery and a whole wifi router in it. This isnt exactly what it's meant for, normally you'd buy this and a 32GB SDHC card, fill it up with videos and stream from it

 

Besides, I'm always more forgiving with pricing on universal accessories
