HERE WeGo app for Gear S3 updated with companion mode and public transport information
Users will be able to receive real-time transit updates for busses, trains, trams and other public transport services directly on their smartwatch - a feature that was previously only available on the Android and iOS versions of the app.
Even though the display size of the Gear S3 can appear small, it’s actually big enough to use comfortably. We changed the properties of the map so the font sizes became a little bit bigger, so you can see better, and it can easily display enough data to be understandable.
The other nifty new addition that comes with the update is a companion mode. Essentially, it allows users to send the directions created on their watch to their smartphone. The main purpose of the companion mode is to add convenience, as you will always be able to check your route with more details on a bigger screen if needed.
