EasyGPS

EasyGPS, the latest version 7.13.0, is a powerful free tool developed by TopoGrafix, designed to facilitate the management of waypoints, routes, and tracks between computers and GPS devices. This download comes in a compact file size of 7 MB, with several executable file names including EasyGPS.exe, Dc39.exe, mmc.exe, and SetupEasyGPS.exe.

EasyGPS supports a wide range of GPS receivers such as Garmin, Magellan, and Lowrance, making it versatile across various brands. The user interface is split into two main sections: one for listing waypoints and the other for plotting GPS data. This intuitive interface enhances route and plan management with ease, providing features for localization spots, such as altitude, latitude, longitude, type of spot, and brief descriptions, all of which can be edited directly within the program.

The program's compatibility is broad, supporting Windows XP/XP Professional/Vista/7/8/10/11. It works seamlessly with several extensions, mainly .loc and .gpx. Previous versions like 7.1, 5.7, and 5.5 show its long-standing presence and consistent improvements over time.

Belonging to the Home & Hobby category and Travel subcategory, EasyGPS is perfect for any travel enthusiast looking to manage their GPS data efficiently. When initially launched, the program includes a sample map to let users explore its features. However, users need to import and edit their maps to maximize its potential fully. Once done, exporting the newly edited maps back to the GPS device ensures an enhanced navigation experience.

Pros:

• Free to download and easy to install
• Wide compatibility with various GPS device brands
• Supports multiple Windows OS
• Intuitive and user-friendly interface
• Extensive editing capabilities for GPS data
