Quick answer
Live Google Maps turns for Amazfit watches and Zepp devices.
StarPath brings glanceable Google Maps navigation directions directly to your Amazfit watch via the Zepp app or Gadgetbridge while your phone stays safely in your pocket or bag. Tested on Amazfit Active 2; expected to work on any Zepp- or Gadgetbridge-paired watch with notification mirroring.
★ How It Works StarPath reads Google Maps navigation notifications, reformats them into high-contrast directional cards, and the Zepp app or Gadgetbridge mirrors them to your watch over Bluetooth (StarPath itself uses no Bluetooth code).
★ Key Features • Large Directional Badges: Custom rendered high-contrast turn arrows designed specifically for quick glances on smartwatch displays. • Smart Milestone Alerts: Automatically alerts and wakes the watch display at key approach milestones (500m, 200m, 100m, 50m). • Stay-Awake Pulses: Sends gentle keep-alive pulses approaching intersections so turn instructions remain visible on screen. • Automatic Lifecycle: Background service activates when Google Maps navigation starts and cleanly shuts down when you reach your destination. • Battery Efficient: Suppresses alerts during long straight cruising to minimize watch and phone battery drain. • 100% Privacy & Zero Telemetry: Completely offline. No internet permission, no analytics, no ads, and zero data collection.
★ Supported Languages Maneuver and distance parsing currently supports English and Vietnamese, with additional language contributions welcome.
How to install
- Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
- Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
- Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
- If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
