Add Custom Cue / Waypoints to Planning and Export planned route as TCX or FIT file

Would be nice to add a custom cue with e.g. food symbol or water symbol and text. Use case would be: click on route > add waypoint > drop down menu with icons and a text field to type the description. In a TCX file it would look like <CoursePoint> <Name>Waldstette</Name> <Time>2025-03-28T22:44:14Z</Time> <Position> <LatitudeDegrees>48.77404527272727</LatitudeDegrees> <LongitudeDegrees>9.81913609090909</LongitudeDegrees> </Position> <PointType>Food</PointType> <Notes>Waldstetten Cafe Stop right here</Notes> </CoursePoint> It would be shown on the device like the turn by turn navigation, but only the defined waypoints.

It's planned. I'm working on personal POI which will be then added to exported GPX which also supports waypoints. Exporting to TCX and FIT is another task but I will add it eventually as well.

Will the gpx created this way actually display a waypoint on devices like garmin / hammerhead / wahoo etc.?

Kacper Golinski bobiko That was my intention to create some additional information on a long tour/route. But only TCX and FIT will be creating these waypoints on these devices. I couldn’t get it working with GPX files.

This is what it looks like on a Headunit.

R2-Tom Which planning app did you use to get Bolt to show custom POIs?
