GPS

The Gear has a GPS sensor so that you can check your real-time location information without connecting to a mobile device. When you are using your Gear without connecting to a mobile device or using apps such as Alti-Barometer, the GPS sensor in your Gear will be used. Also, you allow others to track your location by sending an SOS message in an emergency.

On the Apps screen, tap (Settings) →Connections →Location →Location to activate it.

To select a method to use for locating, scroll down the screen and select an option.

When your Gear and mobile device are connected, this feature uses your mobile device’s GPS. Activate the mobile device’s location feature to use the GPS sensor.

GPS signal strength may decrease in locations where the signal is obstructed, such as between buildings or in low-lying areas, or in poor weather conditions.
