Send to Garmin does not work: Invalid file
Known
Since few weeks I cannot send tracks from locus maps to my Garmin Fenix 7x anymore. There are two different behaviours on my watch when I share a track to it:
1. the watch does not receive the track but starts locus Maps in "watch mode"
2. when after few tries the watch finally downloads the receiving track, the download ends with the message "invalid file".
Any ideas and help? 🙏
The same problem 
I experience the same behavior on my Fenix 7.
I already tried to reinstall the Locus App on my Fenix, but doesn't work.
The invalid file come up after every route download.
I use an Android 14 phone
My workaround: Export gpx to phone storage and import ro Garmin Connect. Then download. This way it works (so it seems not to be the gpx track itself)

I am experiencing the same issue since few days ago. Xiaomi Redmi note 11 and Fenix 7.
If I export fit or gpx file to the storage and then import to my watch with iq map receiver or gimporter it works. So it shouldn't be a problem for the gpx file itself. The problem is in the process of sending the file to the watch via locus add-on

The workaround that worked for David and Joan does not work for me. After deleting all tracks from my fenix, the first track now can be sent to my fenix 7x again, but further tracks are cancelled again with the message "invalid file". So I have to delete every time the 1 track which is saved on the watch before sending another track to it. Pretty annoying... 🤔 😒

Since Version 4.24.1 I observe following (new) behaviour: I can now send more than the first route to my Garmin Fenix 7x (the download isn't aborted anymore with the message "invalid file").
But: I still can't navigate this route! Every time I try to start this track/navigation on the watch the fenix 7x restarts itself completely 😳🙈
