Google Maps is already available for Garmin Smarters

The most popular navigation app in the world, Google Maps, already has its version of Garmin’s smartwathers. It will use features and interface close to the Apple Watch version, and there will be a large amount of restrictions again.

For starters, Google Maps for Garmin smartwatches will require a constant connection with your mobile phone to function. Unlike the Wearos version, you will not be able to search for destinations or use navigation without connection to your smartphone here.

According to the Garmin description, your watch will vibrate each time when you pass an upcoming turn, with just one touch of the screen you will be able to see the next three blocks you have to go through.

Of course, the use of Google Maps will not limit the monitoring of fitness and your health performance, which will continue to be reported normally as before.

The Google Maps app is compatible with over 90 Garmin Smart Smarters and can be downloaded from the company’s Connect IQ store HereS So far, the iPhone and iOS work are not available.
