The Galaxy Watch5 Pro is the first wearable from Samsung that’s made for outdoor adventures with a more robust titanium body and sapphire crystal glass, not to mention its great 3-day battery life, but the most exciting feature is its ability to support turn-by-turn route navigation, which helps you navigate your way in the wilderness with custom waypoints, here’s how to import a GPX file into your Galaxy Watch5 Pro.
Launch the Samsung Health app on your phone, scroll to the Exercise section and select Hiking or Cycling
