Because Strava added a protection so other applications cannot use their new map...

That's a great shame very useful layer for bike trails
The locus map users have come up with a solution, any chance it can be implemented in alpine quest

hi
I have had a battle with getting a cookie from chrome and adding it to the AQX file. my ancient computing and cut n paste skills not succeeding !

Could you show me what format and where to paste the cookie info in the .aqx file

i get an error
Failed to load custom map
file '/storage/emulated/
O/alpinequest/datastore/
custom-maps/COM.111.AQX':
awk (Xml Closing Tag (line
120, col 7, pos 6716: starts with
"cookie', ends with 'aqx', line
#120 column #7)

i have used these instructions from locus to acquire the cookie

As I am a heavy user to the strava heatmap as overlay I found a hack (disclaimer it's ugly :))

Create a Strava account (it's free)
Use Chrome to browse to the Strava Heatmap site (i.e. https://www.strava.com/heatmap#12.56/8. ... 9/hot/ride)
Login in Strava to be able to zoom on street level
Open open chrome developer tools -> network, filter for .png
Right click an entry in the column Name and do a "copy as cURL"
Paste that in an editor and copy the Cookie Part, everything after "Cookie:" up unto '
Override the strava2.providers.xml on your phone with the following: replace {paste cookie data here} with your Cookie data.

this is the cookie info i guessed it requires

"Cookie: CloudFront-Policy=...; CloudFront-Key-Pair-Id=...; CloudFront-Signature=..."

Just change "run" to "ride" in urls:

Code: Select all

<server><![CDATA[https://heatmap-external-a.strava.com/tiles-auth/ride/hot/{$z}/{$x}/{$y}.png?px=256]]></server>
Also, if you want to see winter tracks change "run" to "winter". And "all" for all tracks.
