Hi,
I think there's a bug when importing GPX files with timestamps. AlpineQuest (2.0.7) ignores timestamps in the format "yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss+00:00", i.e. with the "+hh:mm" timezone specifier. This is what I get from other software. It seems it only understands the "yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ" ones (it wants "Z" instead of "+00:00"). Other software (gpsbabel, some online tool) seem to be able to understand both formats. I've tried understanding the GPX specs, but I didn't find the definition for the timestamp formats.
I can pm you examples if you like.

Re: GPX import timestamps ignored
Hi,
The GPX format specifies that times must be in UTC (search for UTC here), so the application will always export a 'Z' timezone (UTC), however you're right that it would be better to handle all time zones when importing.
So I'll fix it for the next update.
Thanks for the report.

Do you like AlpineQuest ? Leave a small comment on Google Play !

Hi, thanks a lot! I haven't seen that when looking (I think) at the same file.. :-/
