The Maps app for iOS is slightly different from the Maps app for WatchOS. In the iOS Maps app there’s a setting called Tracking. It has 3 modes, Off, On and On with Headings. On and On with Headings call out streets. Headings give you the compass directions as you walk and of the cross streets.
The WatchOS app has a Tracking mode as well and it only has On and Off. I haven’t played with it yet to see just how it behaves when on and walking. The iOS Maps app doesn’t seem to port its settings, i.e., Tracking mode setting, to the WatchOS app. HTH Jenine Stanley [email protected] > On May 2, 2015, at 10:25 AM, Todor Fassl <[email protected]> wrote: > > I was walking somewhere last night and I somehow got the IOS maps app to keep > calling out my current location.
