Wish: Export multiple GPX files #205

It would be great if more than one GPX files could be shared at the same time. Sending them one by one to my desktop is a bit tedious. Alternatively, the files could be stored in the iCloud Drive to make it easier to browse from other devices.

Automatically saving the files in iCloud Drive would be great. I came here to suggest this, so I am happy to see @kostasdizas has already done so! On my iPhone with iOS 14.5.1, the Settings aggregator has an entry for GPX Tracker where I can set some permissions. I already have it set to "Allow GPX Tracker to Access ... Document Storage > iCloud Drive" and in the submenu where it says "Store documents & data on ..." I have a checkmark beside iCloud Drive. Nonetheless, I still have to take some manual steps in the application to actually get the files over to iCloud.

This is my only enhancement request for a really wonderful software creation. Thank you very much for making it!

I second both suggestions. iCloud Drive & Multiple File Sharing. I think they are two separate requests though and may need to be separated into their own issues since I believe they are both valid ideas and needs.
