See Google Navigation instructions on your Samsung Gear Fit 1 smartwatch.

Features & Capabilities

Gear Fit Navigation allows you to see Google Maps navigation instructions directly on your Samsung Gear Fit 1 smartwatch. It supports both horizontal and vertical layouts, showing easy-to-understand icons for turns, highway exits, and U-turns, along with optional vibration alerts. To use, install Gear Fit Manager, connect your Gear Fit, enable notification access for the app, and start navigation on your phone. It enhances your navigation experience by bringing directions conveniently to your wrist, eliminating the need to constantly check your phone.

Note that this app is specifically designed for Gear Fit 1 and is not compatible with Gear Fit 2 devices. For Gear Fit 2 users, a separate app is available. The app requires that notifications from Google Maps are enabled on your phone for proper functionality. It works best with Samsung smartphones but can also function on other phones with specific Gear Fit Manager versions.

User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's concept for hands-free navigation on Gear Fit devices, especially for cycling and motorcycling. However, multiple reviews report frequent crashes, lack of proper turn-by-turn directions and vibration alerts, constant screen-on draining battery, and compatibility issues limiting usability. Poor documentation and customer support further contribute to user dissatisfaction despite initial promise of the app's functionality.

Pros

Helps with navigation on Gear Fit devices, especially useful for cyclists and motorcyclists wanting hands-free directions.
Provides ETA and destination information reliably when working.
Works well when integrated properly with Google Maps and GPS navigation enabled on the phone.
Offers convenience by allowing users to keep their phones safe and charged while navigating via watch.
Some users appreciate the basic navigation info without needing to mount phone on bike or motorcycle.

Cons

App frequently crashes or stops working after a short period, leading to poor reliability.
Lacks turn-by-turn direction icons and adequate vibration alerts; navigation feedback is inadequate for many users.
App screen stays on constantly during use, which drains Gear Fit battery quickly without auto-dimming or screen-off features.
Compatibility issues with certain devices and operating system versions, such as Gear Fit 2 and Android N, prevent usage.
Poor or unclear instructions and lack of responsive customer support leave users frustrated and dissatisfied.
