TCX route files - GPX files

[grahamm7]

On my FitBit app I managed some how to obtain my walk Route in TCX file.  However I need it in GPX for OMN map app and Garmin Base Camp.  So I used an on-line converter but it didn't like the file. It said one of the lines contained a syntax error - needed and equal sign!  Does any one know how you can export the route one has walked (or cycled etc...) from the FitBit app on my phone to say my PC and then ensure it is in valid TCX format.  My Maps Google will handle TCX.  Then it would be good to convert to GPX for Garmin/OMN apps etc...  I do a lot of walking and good to integrate my Fit Bit Charge 4 with these devices.

Hi Julian - Thanks for all the advice etc...  Much appreciated.  I can now track my walking with Fitbit charge 4.  I can export it as a TCX file.  Tried to export it to Google Drive and then download to my PC.  But ran into Google difficulties.  Tried to allow Google Drive download aka their instructions!  So exported to One Drive - no problems.  Pulled the TCX file into Garmin BaseCamp ok.  Then exported it as a GPX route.  Imported this into Outside Map Navigator (OMN) which uses OS maps and saw the route perfectly.  So this side works fine.  I can now use the Fitbit to measure and track some of my longer walks.  It is great it shows me at 78 when I am doing fat burn or even cardio.  Need to to a bit more cardio.  Keep up the good work with Fitbit and related matters.
