Most of the things happening on Android Wear smartwatches are entirely dependent on the connected phone, but there is support for the watches to be a little more independent. The Sony SmartWatch 3, for example, has its own GPS chip that was enabled by the Android 4.4W.2 update. Now the popular fitness app RunKeeper has been updated to take advantage of it.
With the new version of the app, you can start RunKeeper on the SmartWatch 3 (as well as any future watches with GPS) and leave the phone at home.
