Sending Downloads to Apple Watch

You can download maps right on the watch, but it's much easier to download them on your iPhone. If you already have downloads there, you can send them straight to your watch.

How to send a download to your watch

On your iPhone:

  1. Tap the maps button in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
