Mostly, I use my Apple Watch as a remote for taking PHOTOS and VIDEOS on the trail.
Most of the time, the watch shows a low resolution image so I can better frame the shot.
For example, I took this photo of myself in a Prambanan temple using the watch. Typical range is 33 feet (10 meters) — but I find it varies quite a bit.

One downside ➙ doing this does kill the watch battery quickly. MUST remember to bring the charging cable with me on the hike. 😀
I was inspired by Kurt Papke to better organize how I use my Apple Watch while hiking.
