Import waypoints?
-
So I've found the real Navigator folder on the sd card (not the useless empty folder): Android/data/com.mapfactor.navigator/files/navigator/
After that easter-egg hunt, you might find a useful file called: favourites.xml
This xml file has your saved waypoints for quick navigation. A gpx file is already a type of xml very similar to favourites.xml, so there should be a way to easily convert or import the data.
example:
-wp.gpx-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
</wpt>
<wpt lat="37.006736755371094" lon="-85.89397430419922">
<name>125 Groce St, Glasgow, KY 42141</name>
<desc>125 Groce St, Glasgow, KY 42141</desc>
</wpt>
</gpx>
-------------------------------------------
-favourites.xml-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<favourites version="1">
<item name="Home" lat="133290976" lon="-311840014"/>
<item name="37:1:31.116, -86:37:19.704" lat="133291115" lon="-311839704"/>
</favourites>
If there is a way to import gps coordinates from bing maps or simply any device with a keyboard? I've tried every menu and feature of the app, yet I don't find half of the functions listed on google play. I'm sure it can do anything I want...by manually editing xml files?

Download route importer from the google play store. It can import waypoint and route files and will add them as a route in your favourites.xml file as a set (between <set></set).
From there you can easily add your waypoints as "simple" favourites from within Navigator and then remove the route from your favourites.
Howdy, Stranger!
