Requirements
- Have an Apple Watch with watchOS 8 or later.

If you want to send trails from other Wikiloc users: have a Wikiloc Premium subscription (how to get it here).
You can always send your trails and Wikiloc ORG users' trails for free.
Once everything is set, you should be able to see a solid green "Send to your Apple Watch" button on every Wikiloc app trail screen.
