 ====== Transfer a Route within Kurviger or Save it for Later Use ======
-Transferring routes within the Kurviger universe is very easy. You can use the same technique to save routes to use them later yourself. There are a few different options. Choose the option that works best for you.
+<WRAP info> Transferring a route within Kurviger or saving it for later use is very easy. There are many different ways to do this. Just choose the option that works best for you.
-===== .kurviger File =====
+**Important:** The Kurviger Cloud is the best way to transfer your planned route to the Kurviger app. You can easily save your planned route in the cloud and then open it from any device and, of course, in the Kurviger app.
-The .kurviger file is probably the most versatile option. The .kurviger file contains all information that is required to calculate the route. When importing the .kurviger file into the Kurviger App you don't even need an internet connection to do import the route. The .kurviger file contains the routing options as well, so you don't need to worry about your route settings, everything is set the way you planned the route.
+For detailed information about the cloud, please see [[:cloud|here]].
-You can create a .kurviger file by planning a route, go to the export dialog, select the .kurviger format and export the file.

-===== QR Code =====
+===== .kurviger File =====
-You can show a QR Code representation of the route on the Kurviger Website (''Share'') and Kurviger App (''Share'' -> ''Route QR Code''). You can scan this code with your smartphone using a barcode scanner app, like [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teacapps.barcodescanner|this]] one. Now the Kurviger App should open up and display the route.
+Another option is to use the **.kurviger** file.
+  * The **.kurviger** file contains all the information required for route calculation.
+  * In combination with the Kurviger app, no internet connection is required to load the route.
+  * contains all route options, so you only have to load the file and the settings from the initial planning are applied directly.

+===== QR Code =====
+You can create a QR code representation of your route on the Kurviger website (''Share'') and Kurviger app (''Share'' -> ''Route QR Code''). You can scan this QR code with your smartphone and a barcode app (e.g. [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teacapps.barcodescanner|this]] here). The Kurviger app should now open and display the route.

 ===== Link =====
-Links can be generated on the Kurviger Website and Kurviger App (similar to the QR code above). Copy the link, it should look like ''kurv.gr/abc12''. Now open your favorite messaging or email application and send the link to yourself or your riding mates. You can also post the link to a forum or social media websites like Facebook or Twitter.

+Some people also create a text file (e.g. Word file) with the links for a multi-day tour to have all tours at a glance.

 ===== GPX File =====
-When exporting a GPX file for the use with Kurviger, we recommend to use the Route and no additional waypoints. It's important to note, that the GPX file does not contain the routing settings, like curviness. You need to select them after importing the GPX file yourself.
+When **exporting a GPX file for later use in Kurviger,** we recommend **using the route without additional waypoints.**
-If you want to make sure, that the calculated route follows your initially planned route, you can export the Route and Track. Just make sure when importing to select the Route for the route calculation and the track for the overlay.
