GPX Bridge turns a shared Google Maps route into a clean GPX course your cycling computer can follow. No accounts. No friction. Just ride.
No exporting, no fiddling with file types, no signing into yet another service. The flow you already know — with one new step.
Build your route the same way you always do — directions, multi-stop, the lot.
Tap the share sheet, pick GPX Bridge. We detect the route and parse the geometry.
Save the GPX or push it straight to your device as a course. Then mount up.
If you've ever copied a Google Maps link to a desktop, run it through three sites, and emailed the GPX to yourself just to load it on your Edge — this is for you.
Works with directions shared straight from the Google Maps app — including maps.app.goo.gl shorteners.
Push courses straight to your device over Garmin Connect, or save the GPX and load it manually.
Same workflow on both platforms. The share sheet is a first-class entry point.
Routes are processed locally and stay on your device. No accounts. No cloud profile. No tracking.
Small download, fast conversion, low battery cost. The whole app fits in your back pocket.
No paywall, no subscription, no banner ads inside your route. Built for the love of the ride.

Any Garmin that accepts a standard GPX course file — Edge cycling computers (530, 540, 830, 840, 1040…), fenix, Forerunner, Instinct, and most others released in the last decade.
It needs a connection to fetch the route geometry from a shared Google Maps link. Once the GPX is generated, transferring it to your Garmin works offline.
No. Routes are processed for the conversion and are not stored on our servers, sold, or shared. There is no account system to leak data from in the first place.
Cycling and driving directions from Google Maps work best. Walking and transit aren't the intended use case — though they often work in a pinch.
Yes. We sample elevation along the route so your Garmin can render the climb profile and trigger ClimbPro where supported.
