Add an app or feature that allows a user to mark a waypoint in their watch and then use it to navigate back to the waypoint.

Would love this. Crippled GPS is kind of weird, but common among the devices that are not true GPS only.

I would like this feature as well. Particularly if you could set waypoints from the app and use it to know how far you are from a waypoint and maybe even a ETA based on your speed. I would use this for hiking and canoeing destinations.
