First time after installation:
• Launch this Navigation companion app in phone or tablet
• Grant requested permission

Every time when you want to use navigation:
• Launch Android Google Maps™ in phone or tablet
• Launch Navigation client app in smartwatch
• Google Maps™ directions will be shown on smartwatch
• Google Maps™ voice guidance will be played on smartwatch
• Incoming manoeuvres are signaled in smartwatch by simple or advanced vibrations: left turns will be signaled via two short vibrations, right turns will be signaled via three shorts vibrations

ⓘ This app shows only directions, distances, manoeuvres and ETA, map is not displayed on smartwatch.

⚠ Voice guidance and advanced vibra notifications are played on the smartwatch when it is paired with Android 10 or below phone.

ⓘ If you have problems with displaying navigation directions on the watch, please check the following:
✓ Launch this Navigation host app in phone and check if all permissions are granted
✓ Make sure that watch and phone are connected via bluetooth
✓ Check Settings / Apps / Navigation / Battery / Allow background activity -> should be enabled or set to Unrestricted
✓ Make sure that notifications are enabled for the Android Google Maps™ app, go to Settings / Apps / Maps / Notifications
✓ Directions in watch are shown only when navigation in Android Google Maps™ is started (it is not enough to just launch Google Maps™ app)
