How-to Guides

These guides explain concrete user workflows that need more detail than a short feature page.

  • Add offline maps: download PMTiles or Mapsforge map packs, import them into OpenVitals, choose the active render format, and troubleshoot common issues.
  • Add elevation tiles: obtain SRTM .hgt tiles for your area, import them, and correct the altitude of imported routes.
  • Install the Wear OS app: pair a computer with the watch over Wi-Fi adb, skip the vendor onboarding on a new watch where possible, install the OpenVitals watch app, grant its permissions, and pair the phone.
