Possibility to follow tracks (for loops for instance)

[AnnaTartine]

I love the app a lot for biking especially. However something is stoping me to adopt Organic Maps at 100%

I like that i can import GPX tracks, but i'm not being able to follow that track by launching an itinerary.

Especially when i want to make a loop. Geo vélo (a binking app) allows me to make loops arround my position, i can then export them to GPX, but i can't follow it through OM.

With the new background voice instruction, i really like to use OM with needing to stop to figure out where i have to go. And i can't doing it with loops or specific track i'd like to follow

On the geo vélo app, after creating a loop, i can start it from the app, with voice instruction and informations about the altitude or the time it takes

Perhaps it is useful for people to ne able to do such things directly in OM.

I think it could be interesting for people who plans trips in advance, for hiking for instance.

Is it only about track navigation (see #1360 ) or also about non-working loop routes?

Oh i couldn't find a similar issue sorry !!

I guess if this feature is implemented, the loop would work. Maybe the only thing would be a possibility to chose in which direction you want to take the loop

Thanks a lot, sorry i'm not very good with github. The discussion you mentionned in interesting, i will keep an eye on it
