Turn off Navigation on my watch

I followed the instructions to turn off maps through the Apple Watch app. It shows it’s turned off but my watch is still giving notifications which is eating up my battery.

any suggestions would be appreciated.


TIA

I believe that you are referring location suggestions. These notifications are separate from directional notifications. If you do not want to see location suggestions, turn off frequent locations. To do this, on your iPhone, open Settings ➡️ Privacy ➡️ Location Services ➡️ System Services ➡️ Frequent Locations: Set this to OFF.
