Description
This is Compass Navigation companion app for phones to create and edit waypoints in comfortable way and sync them to Compass Navigation app installed on HUAWEI Watch 3 / 4 / PRO. NOTE: this app works only with Harmony OS watches. For Wear OS you have to install other version.
When you lost in forest/mountains or in crowded city, when you travel, climbing or fishing, save your position like parked car, shelter or hotel, and then navigate back following the guiding arrow on your watch without phone and Internet access (offline).
IMPORTANT! The app is intended to use outdoor on Harmony OS powered smartwatches. Navigation will NOT work in a building because of low GPS signal from satellites.
You get 3 in 1:
1. Navigation.
2. Compass (magnetometer or GPS).
3. Speedometer.
How to use?
1. Go outdoor. Launch the app on your watch.
2. Wait 1-3 minutes until your watch configure signal from GPS satellites.
3. When you see green satellite icon click + icon to add your current position/waypoint like home, hotel, shelter in mountains or just parked car.
4. Now you can exit the app. Your position was saved.
5. When you want back to saved position/waypoint launch the app. Wait for green satellite icon and click left, location icon. From the waypoints list choose a position you want to navigate back.
6. The top, white arrow shows you current heading. To get the target/saved position you must match a red point with white, top arrow. The red point is you saved position like home or parked car. You navigate to this point.
7. When you heading correct the distance counter is decreased. You are getting closer to your target.
8. Click the red point/target to get more details about your target like geographical coordinates or distance to the target.
9. Each waypoint gets default name. You can change it to more specific. On the waypoints list press for longer time on selected waypoint to show menu with options. Choose edit icon in order to rename your waypoint.
In addition to your saved waypoints, you can use predefined waypoints. We added over 100 predefined waypoints like London, Honolulu, New York or Seoul. Have a fun!
Tip: In a car we recommend to switch to GPS sensor instead using magnetic field (magnetometer) senor because this sensor is not reliable in the car and might show incorrect bearing. Just disable 'Use magnetic field sensor' in settings views when you driving a car.
