Lost the route tracking feature on Apple Watch 3

It should bee there.

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone.

How to restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support

Restart your iPhone - Apple Support

To see the map, you must turn on route tracking. On your iPhone, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services,turn location services on then tap Apple Watch Workout, then tap While Using the App.

Then tap on maps then tap While using the app.

Then tap on System Services and turn on motion calibration and distance.

Another place to check is on the watch in settings/privacy/Location Services and make sure this is turned on and scroll down to apple watch workout and select while using the app.

To get watch workout icon back again in privacy settings on iphone u have to unpair watch and pair again , just follow the steps and chose backups and that will install all your settings , and your watch will be back to normal

The issue is you cannot "tap Apple Watch Workout" in your instructions above, as it does not show in the location services list! This problem has been reported and repeated many times over the years. It is a bug, plain and simple, and Apple should attempt to provide a method to fix without unpairing the watch.

I agree. I can’t see an option to tap Apple Watch Workout either. Seems to have disappeared since latest software update
