    The Galaxy Watch 4 is one of the best Android watches money can buy. It has amazing build quality, a refined software expirience and impressive exercise tracking features. One of these features is route tracking, where the watch tracks your movement on a trail and presents it visually on a map.

    Step 5: Accept location permissions when prompted

    Whenever you manualy start a running or walking workout, the watch will automaticaly track your location and present it on a map. The map will showcase useful information such as pace, laps and path. 

    There is something rewarding, seeing this type of information on a map. It gives you a broader perspective of how far you’ve run or walked. It also encourages you to pursue and explore newer trails.

    Will the watch record your location with automatic tracking?

However, in this mode, location will be recorded without a path; Meaning, you will not see a visual representation of the trail on a map. Only an approximate location will be shown like the picture below.
