As well as rolling out someenormous upgrades for cyclists, theWatchOS 10 updatewill also turn theApple Watch Ultrainto a capableGarmin watchalternative. Well, thanks to the new updates, the Ultra will most likely be able to rival theGarmin Fenix 7 Pro(apart from the battery life, of course). And not just the Ultra; anyApple Watchreceiving the latest update later this year will benefit from the enhanced Hiking app and new mapping features.
These include a redesigned compass feature that automatically tracks two types of waypoints. The Ultra’s Adventure Mode was already capable of dropping waypoints as you went along, but the new compass feature, from what we can tell, will support even theApple Watch Series 8, based on the presentation we saw at WWDC 2023.

The first of the two new automatically-detected waypoints will remember the last point during your track where you had cellular signal/mobile data, allowing you to retrace your steps to safety, so to speak, so that you can make a call. The other type of waypoint the WatchOS 10’s compass will track is what Apple call Dynamic 3D Elevation Dial, helping you visualise the ascents and descents on your route.
