In order to use location-based services and apps on your Galaxy watch, such as Google Maps, you’ll need to enable your watch’s GPS location setting. You can also increase the signal’s accuracy to ensure it’s correct every time.
On older watch models, such as the Galaxy Watch3, open Settings, and then tap Location. Tap the switch to turn it on. Under Methods, you can select when your watch uses location data.
While wearing your watch during an exercise routine, the watch’s GPS can automatically detect the workout and record your location. This can be enabled using the watch or the connected phone.
GPS and location data on your Galaxy watch can be affected by certain conditions. For example, it may not be accurate if your watch has been disconnected from your phone, if the signal is poor, or if the software needs to be updated.
