A:AnswerI believe the GPS tracking is only for the device to track your activities like walking and running. I do not see any place in the app to see where I have been or where i am moving.
If you need to track your child you could use something like life 360 but you need to connect a device to that and im not sure if you can connect a watch, maybe a samsung or apple watch.
