Download and transfer maps to your watch

To download and transfer maps to your watch, you need a computer, and your watch must be connected to your Flow
account. First, download the map file from the Polar Flow web service, and then transfer it to the watch on your
computer using File Explorer (Windows) or Android File Transfer and Finder (Mac).

In the Flow web service, you can access the map download page by clicking your name/profile photo in the upper right
corner and choosing Download
You can download new maps or download the maps on your watch again to update them. You can choose maps that
are smaller and more detailed, or larger and more basic.
Pan and zoom: Activate the pan and zoom mode. Use the UP (+) and DOWN (-) buttons
to adjust the view, and pan by swiping. Press OK to accept the new zoom level and exit
the pan and zoom mode. Your location on the map is centered automatically. Note that if
you exit the pan and zoom mode by pressing BACK, the map view will return to the
previous zoom level.
Your location: View the coordinates of your current location.
In Routes, you'll find the routes that you have saved as favorites in the analysis view of
your training session in the Flow web service, and synced to your watch with the Polar
Flow app. Komoot routes are also found here. Choose the route from the list, and then

changes to North up when the pan and zoom mode is enabled.
