RouteConverterOpenSource
RouteConverterOpenSource is a desktop route and GPS data converter for viewing, editing, and converting routes, tracks, and waypoints on macOS.
What is RouteConverterOpenSource?
RouteConverterOpenSource is a native desktop navigation utility for working with route, track, and waypoint files on macOS. It helps users open GPS and mapping data, view it on a map, edit positions and names, and save it in other supported formats for use with navigation apps and devices. Common uses include converting GPX, KML, CSV, RTZ, and other route formats, preparing trips, cleaning up waypoint lists, and moving data between different mapping tools. The app is also useful for offline workflows because file conversion happens on the computer rather than through a web upload. Published by Navigation as part of the RouteConverter project, it is intended for travelers, outdoor users, and anyone who manages route files across different platforms and devices.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a legitimate route conversion and editing app for GPS and navigation files. It normally needs access only to the files you choose to open or save, and local conversion is standard for this kind of utility. Some features may use map, routing, or geocoding services depending on how you use the app, so route data and searched locations can be sensitive if they describe your travel plans. Download it from the official RouteConverter site, and keep only route files you still need.
Recommendation: Keep RouteConverterOpenSource if you actively convert or edit GPS route files on your Mac. If you no longer use route planning or file conversion tools, removing it is usually fine and will mainly affect your ability to open and convert supported navigation formats with this app.
