Multiple GPS tracks downloading

Helo,

At the moment it's only possible to download a gps track one at the time.  When you use Ionic for a hiking vacation, it would be nice to download at the end of the vacation all de gps tracks with a simple action.  It will save me a lot of time. Or if you want to download monthly your running tracks etc.

 

Thanks

I'm trying to upload past exercise data to Strava, which only accepts .tcx, .fit, or .gpx files. I've got almost a year of workouts that I'd like to sync over, but when I download my data from Fitbit, I must choose between:

  1. Downloading each activity individually as a .tcx file (which would take days of sitting and clicking)
  2. Exporting my account data, which doesn't include the GPS data from my workouts.

I'd love to be able to download months of my past GPS data at once!

Hi @normanluu. Thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to download multiple GPS exercise data with us! I've moved it into a similar suggestion which has been updated as "Under Consideration". You can check this other suggestion here. Keep adding your suggestions!

I like the idea of batch exporting GPS and exercise data. I also believe that currently exporting one's full history of exercise data is far too workesome which seems uncompliant with EU regulation where subject's data should be portable "by automated means [] without hindrance from the controller" (ie Fitbit in this case)

I would also like this so I can visualize my activities in one place.

Yes, I would like to be able to bulk download all of my tcx files so taht I can upload them into TrainingPeaks. It also ensures that Fitbit complies with EU GDPR legislation which says that accessing personal data (in this case the TCX files) should not be unnecessarily onerous, which it certainly is without the ability to bulk download the files.
