WatchTrace

WatchTrace turns your Garmin into a complete route follower. Create or import routes on the web, send one to your watch, and follow it as a clean red line — no phone needed while you move. Draw a route on the map or import a GPX (the line follows real roads and paths), then send it to your watch with a single tap. On the watch, the route orients to the way you're facing, with multiple zoom levels and distance remaining. Turn on the real map background to see streets and terrain beneath your route. Record your outing as a real activity (running, hiking, cycling): it's saved on the watch and syncs to Garmin Connect and Strava like any other, with time, distance, pace and elevation. Features: • Follow any route as a red line oriented to your heading (compass) • Real map background beneath the route (outdoor/topo) • Multiple zoom levels + "to go" distance and off-route warning • Elevation profile with your live position • Record activity → Garmin Connect → Strava (time, distance, pace, ascent) • Battery saver mode (GPS-only, north-up) • Create/import routes on the web — no phone needed on the trail Getting started: Open WatchTrace on your watch → "Open on phone" to link your free account, create or import routes at stepsbattle.com/watchtrace, and send them to your watch. Requires a Bluetooth connection to your phone to download routes.
