WearGPS is a standalone map and GPS navigation app for Wear OS, made for hiking, walking, outdoor exploring, and following GPX routes directly from your watch.
No phone is required for normal use. You can use online maps or download offline maps to your watch before your trip, so the map remains available even without mobile signal.
