GPS
The Gear has a GPS sensor so that you can check your real-time location information without
connecting to a mobile device. You can also use apps which require your location information
such as
Alti-Barometer
, and allow others to track your location by sending an SOS message
in an emergency.
On the Apps screen, tap (
Settings
)
→
Connections
→
Location
, and tap the
Location
switch 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
location information. 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.
