Offline Topo map navigation app recommendation?

[prosnomonkey]

Hey All -

I am considering getting a Galaxy watch and one secondary purpose would be to use it in the backcountry as a navigation aid.

What are some good apps to use with a Samsung S7 Edge and the Galaxy watch for offline navigation with Topo maps?

I am thinking about something that has Garmin like functionality (I don't like the price or looks of any of their smartwatches though)

Thanks!
J

US Topo Maps Free if you're in the US. GPS plus offline.

Is there a different app store for the Galaxy Watch vs the Gear S3? I'm not seeing an app for this in the Gear S3 store.

How does this work with the Galaxy Watch? Can it send notifications to the watch? Ideally, I'd like to be able to set a route on the topo map, and then while hiking, have it send directions to the watch? Is this possible?

I have the (Navigation Pro: Google maps). works well for me. can't remember if I paid or if it was free.
