Remove Waypoints

The Remove Waypoints tool removes all waypoint markers from your GPX file.

When to Use

This tool is useful when:

  • You want to share just the route without points of interest
  • The waypoints are cluttering your route
  • You want to reduce file size
  • You're cleaning up a route for a specific purpose

How to Use

  1. Upload your GPX or FIT file
  2. Click the Remove Waypoints button in the Tools section
  3. All waypoints are immediately removed
  4. Download your modified file

What Are Waypoints?

Waypoints are individual points of interest marked in your file, such as:

  • Start/finish locations
  • Rest stops or cafes
  • Points of interest along the route
  • Photo locations
  • Custom markers

They are separate from the track points that make up your route.

What Gets Removed

  • All elements from GPX files
  • Waypoint names, descriptions, and coordinates
  • Waypoint symbols and types

What's Preserved

Everything else remains intact:

  • The complete track/route
  • Elevation data
  • Timestamps
  • Sensor data
  • Metadata

Notes

  • This action cannot be undone without reloading the original file
  • The button is only enabled if your file contains waypoints
  • Track points are NOT affected - only waypoints are removed
  • Routes (different from waypoints) are also preserved
