Rambler GPX Maps & Navigation
Though Rambler was originally developed for Android Wear smart watches, as your companion during outdoor activities, and a useful addition to activity trackers, the on-phone application may be successfully used without any wearable device. It’s a quite a powerful GPX edition software with some unique, and useful features.
ATTENTION: up to 10% of watches worldwide seems to still run older Play Services. PLEASE CHECK Settings/About/Versions. If your watch got stuck at a version below 9.x, the application will not get installed on the watch. To let you install the app anyway, before the Google team resolves the issue, the alternative build, including Google Play Services 8.x has been published on the beta channel. Please join here:

and wait untill the app is updated. Restart the watch and phone when ready.
More info you'll find in the manual at http://dev.nwg.pl/rambler-user-guide.
Caution: Some options described in the manual are unavailable in the free version. You may buy the pro version here: https://www.google.com/url?q=http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.nwg.dev.wear.ramblerpro. Due to the Consumption Tax the paid version is unavailable in Japan, sorry.

The classic watch face works perfectly for me on my walks / runs. The watch face widgets can be configured to your liking. Please read the manual first, it is well written. I was able to setup the watch face easily. I am using this app with a Asus Zen Watch 1, without any issues.
App stopped working after update today. Watch face is sent to watch but that's how far it gets. Nothing can be accessed on phone, setting cannot be changed etc. Please fix.
Looks good on a gear live. Unfortunately, the companion phone app isn't in the menu on my Nexus 5. UPDATE: Now I know how to get to the settings, it's working great. Very light on battery when not navigating too.
More navigational features than in all but the top of the line big brand name GPS sportswatches.
Great face with loads of functions. My only challenge is calibrating the compass.
Instruction manual and web site give 404 Not Found errors. No instructions or help within the app. No obvious way to import gpx files into the app to have your watch provide route guidance during runs etc. I'm sure this is probably a great app, if I could just figure out how to use it.
