After planning a flight route in Litchi and saving it, the waypoints file saved on the phone appears to be a binary file. When opened with a text editor, it displays gibberish. Is there a way to open and view it on a computer?
That is correct. On the phone, the waypoint missions are stored in an unspecified binary format.
From the Mission Hub, if you export your mission as a CSV file, you can open it with Excel or any text editor. The CSV file contains most but not all of the mission parameters. It does contain the data at each waypoint (heading, coords, etc.) but does not contain any global parameters (heading mode, cruising speed, etc.).
Is it possible to create a flight mission under the Waypoint mode in the upper left corner of the interface, then click on the left side to save, enter the filename ‘xxxxx.csv’ in the ‘Enter a name for the file’ section, to save it as a CSV file? If so, even after opening it in Excel, it still appears as garbled text and cannot be viewed?
Your question.
Your answered it yourself.

So, is it not possible to correctly view the content inside the mission file? Can it only be opened, and when opened, it appears as garbled text

I’ve already answered this question as clearly as I can in post #2.

Of course you could open it in the Litchi app-why do you want to see the raw binary?

These waypoint files can be read with Litchi. To make them text-readable, open them in the web interface, there you can export a CSV file.
