# How to Import GPX Files into Savvy Navvy

|| Importing GPX file to Savvy Navvy is a premium feature available only on the Premium Plan in the US and Explore & Elite plans for the rest of world. [__Learn more about Savvy Plan Pricing here.__](https://www.savvy-navvy.com/pricing)

If you have waypoints or markers saved in another navigation app or chartplotter, you can import them into Savvy Navvy using a GPX file. This is a great way to bring in your favourite anchorages, routes, or fishing spots so you can use them directly in the app.

###### ⚠️ Routes in GPX files cannot be imported — only markers. 
This is because Savvy Navvy’s Smart Routing is unique: it plans routes based on real-time wind, weather, tides, your boat’s specifications, and local regulations. No other navigation tool uses the same routing logic, so imported routes from other systems would not reflect the safe and optimised passage plans that Savvy Navvy provides. *For your safety and accuracy, we recommend plotting routes directly within the app.*
