There is a possibility to use BRouter, either as a local Android
application, either its web frontend, which can generate the GPX file with
voice hints for crossroad/junction turns.
In LocusMap, these hints are possible even if Brouter app is used as the
local 3rd party routing service.
OSMAnd can work in the same way, but unfortunately it cannot process these
hints via its interface to router yet.

Hello Robert,
which app would you suggest in alternative?

Very good, Andrea. I'm glad it all worked out. If you don't want the
curves indicated and announced there are alternative apps. Ride safe out
there.

Hello,
the track exported from Ridewithgps.com worked out flawless.
It keeps indicating curves like it would indicate turns as previously
noted but it's not a problem.
Thanks for all the support.
I am going to contribute buying OsmAnd+.
Andrea.

That's great. I'm sure it will work out for you. Reminder: you won't see
street names. For that you'll need to use another app.

Hello Robert.
I've just uploaded a .kml file in Ridewithgps and exported it in gpx.
I'll test it this evening while getting back from the office and I'll
let you know. :-)

Andrea, you can just upload your kml file from MyMaps directly into
RideWithGPS. Then choose Export/GPX Track and send the file to the Osmand
app on your phone as you did previously. It's easy.
With the friends in my cycling club I just provide a link such as this
to a ride that I've designed: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/28258809
I can also just send you the gpx file that this program created and
named indicazioni114.4mi. See attached. Good luck. As I think about it,
I realize that this all could have been accomplished just using a
smartphone.

As you become familiar with RWGPS, you will realize that you just
need a few clicks along the intended path. Don't click on intersections.
You're not creating the turn points, the program does that for you. This is
different from the way Google MyMaps works.

Hello guys,
thanks again for your support.
I would like to use OsmAnd to follow a custom made route like this
I've created some months ago using Google MyMaps.
https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=10phcvVEn3fNPSHVn0EVa69rw4g84LgHz&ll=41.55660232752447%2C14.158074899999974&z=10
I just want the software following the track I don't want OsmAnd to
calculate its own route between wayponts.
As far as I've understood I have two choices:
- building the route using the app (it will be really hard as I
often build tracks of something like 1500 Kms)
- using Ridewithgps exporting the gpx file.
It seems that I have to learn how to use ridewithgps.
Andrea.

Andrea,
I suggest that you use a computer and practice a bit using the free
version of RideWithGPS. After you have a created and saved a route, choose
the Export tab and select GPX Track (.gpx). Then send that file to your
phone using email, usb, or some other method. Osmand will open
automatically when you select the download. There are many functions of
Osmand to understand. It takes time, but it's worth the effort. For
orientation to direction of movement, just tap on the compass arrow on the
middle left of the display.

@Bart,
Congratulations on producing that superb video. It's really top
notch work. Way to go. When viewing the screenshots provided by the OP, I
immediately realized from the progress bar that Osmand was calculating the
route on the fly between points. I think he wants to create a gpx track
for Osmand to follow rather than use Osmand to navigate between distant
waypoints. Creating waypoints at each turn point is not the way to go for
long road trips. The easiest way I know to do that is with
RideWithGPS.com.

When you follow a GPX, OsmAnd notes the curves. Whereas when you
create a route from within OsmAnd itself, the app will give you
road-oriented, turn-by-turn navigation. This video shows how this is done
using hiking trails, but the same idea applies to navigating roads:
https://youtu.be/o84C0z3Kydc
To get the map to rotate as you move, see settings/Map
orientation.

Hello Robert,
Thanks a lot for your efforts so far.
Using the file you've sent me solved almost all the problems.
Just some small issue maybe due to the fact that I still can't
use properly the app.
OsmAnd indicates turns where there are only curves; moreover the
map was not rotating while I was following the track.
Is there a way to fix this small issues?
Now I have to learn how to properly build a track instead of a
route.
Any help? 😊
Andrea.

So, basically which application I have to use to correctly
convert a kml file into a gpx track?
Is there any appropriate tool to do that?
Thanks.

Andrea,
I will use simple English first. Your file is a gpx route. It
is not a gpx track. Load the attached file into Osmand. It is a gpx track
and should run correctly.
More complicated English: your first screenshot shows the
route calculation progress bar (thin grey bar with short blue segment). It
also shows a street name of SR6. These are not features of Osmand GPX
track navigation. It is a feature of Osmand point to point navigation.
You're telling Osmand to calculate it's own route between each of the
starred points. I don't think this is what you desire. The last screenshot
shows a long straight line that is not on any road. This is a mistake. I
removed it.
Street names can be provided to you, but you will need to
install another app for this feature.

Hello,
thanks for your reply. I think that this issue is not due to
the gpx file having only turn points as I can see a lot of points also
while moving on "straight" parts of the route.
I'll try to convert the kml file using babel instead of ITN
and I'll be back with the results later today.
I tried using ridewithgps.com but I did not manage how to
create a custom route.
Please find attached some screenshot which will clarify the
issue I am describing.
Screenshot_20180803-094532.png: everything was working fine.
Red dots on the gpx track aso on straight parts
Screenshot_20180803-094632.png: track filled with yellow.
Wrong distance to final point
Screenshot_20180803-094754: violet color appears indicating
already passed red dots. Keeps saying and displaying "Intermediate point
reached" or something similar
Screenshot_20180803-094940: same as above but is also
indicating (in yellow) a road which was not in the original gpx track.
Thanks for the support.
Andrea.

I looked at it and believe this is a gpx route with only
turn points. You want a gpx track. Consider using
ridewithgps.com and export gpx track to osmand.

Hello,
I've just installed OsmAnd on my android phone (Honor 6X)
with the purpose of following gpx tracks while riding my motorbike.
I am actually generating the route using Google MyMaps,
downloading the kml file and converting it to GPX.
I can import the gpx file in OsmAnd and start navigation on
the track but after some Kilometers OsmAnd start painting the track with
yellow (before I can just see all red dots on the tracks which I suppose
are the waypoints) and he keeps saying "intermediate point reached" and
show a wrong distance to get to the arrival point (something like 100
Kilometers instead of 5/6 kilometers as he was saying before this issue).
I am attaching the gpx file.
Any idea on how to solve this issue?
Thanks.
Andrea.
