If you are looking for Map for Android Wear well we spotted one on Google Play Store, Mini Maps for Wear the map is still in Alpha which means expect to experience some crashes and issues with your smartwatch, anyways it is still a good alternative if you want to try it out you can download the app below, the app is using the Google Static Maps API to render maps on your smartwatch, once you open the map it will automatically locate your location using the GPS of you smartphone.
The app is a good demo of how we can integrate maps on our Android Wear smartwatch, anyway we tried the app and sometimes it stops but when you restart it works flawlessly, sometimes after swiping for other locations, it crashes, but it’s ok, hope to see a fully functional version of the app soon, the developer Dheera, developer also of Camera app for Android Wear, also provided a source code where you can download from GITHUB https://github.com/dheera/android-wearmaps.
