A COROS watch gets routes through the COROS app: import the GPX there, sync the watch, and start the route from the watch’s Navigation.

Steps

  1. Open the COROS app. On your phone, open the COROS app and go to Profile → Route (or Navigation).
  2. Import the route. Tap Import and select your .gpx from Files.
  3. Sync the watch. Sync your COROS watch so the route transfers.
  4. Start it on the watch. On the watch, open Navigation and select the route to follow it.

Quirks & limits

  • The watch must support navigation; sync after importing so the route reaches the device.
  • COROS accepts several route formats (GPX, KML, TCX, FIT) in the app.

See the route before you upload it
