VERT Peaks
That ridge on the horizon — what is it called? Lift your wrist: VERT Peaks names the summits around you. A compass shows which peak you are facing, a list ranks everything nearby by distance, and every summit has its height, distance and bearing.

Which peak is that?
Peak compass
Turn on the spot and the compass follows: the peak in front of you is always the one named.
Nearby peaks
Everything around you, nearest first, with height and distance.
Peak details
Open any summit for its exact height, how far it is and which way to look.
Offline in the mountains
Peak data for your area loads once and stays cached on the watch, so it keeps working where your phone has no signal.
Honest about what it is not. No camera and no map — on purpose: VERT Peaks names what you are looking at; it is not another map to navigate with. From the makers of VERT, an altimeter and hike & ski tracker for iPhone that works with no signal.
