how do I import gpx files? App says: Steps to manually import a GPX file on android app. Android/data/com.meilancycling.mema/files/gpx This folder do not exist and can't be created. Update: v2.2.7 still the same. Update2: select file in app shows what I've wrote above. Open with or share gpx file don't offer meilan app as an option. Any other option to do it? Update3: I've created sdcard folder in internal storage and the whole folder structure, still no change.

Absolute garbage. After installing the app is visible as 'expandable textviewlibrary'. It needs an effing account to spy on me. After downloading a track from the equally clunky Meilan Oval the app complains about a corrupt fit file and the data is lost forever. Utter utter chinese garbage.

Update on my original review which was 1 star. This app is now far more useful than it used to be and it now does not reset time zone when using app. In fact it is FAR easier to add sensors using app now. Data collected and history display is actually quite good now. It is still a little clunky and for some reason, you have to set the altitude before every ride as it is not getting that from GPS data. Annoying but overcomeable?? esp if importing to Strava.
