Tool to convert OysterX data to GPX format
2026-04-25
I wanted to move from OysterX to another location tracking app, but there was no way to export the data from OysterX in a standard format.
There are two SQLite database files that OysterX uses -
OXDB_userandOXDB_world, I'm pretty sureOXDB_worldis the one with the high resolution data, but I haven't figured out how to interpret it. What I did find was a nice list of coordinates in theOXStorytable in theOXDB_userdatabase. It's a pretty low quality version of the data, but it's good enough for my needs so that's what I used.I've made a tool to extract a .gpx file from the OysterX
OXDB_userfile, which you can use here: OysterX to GPX Converter (everything is calculated locally, don't worry. I'm not harvesting your location history)
