[Closed] Navigating a route Garmin 645

As above, I’ve created a route all on roads in Garmin Connect to see what I can get out of my Forerunner 645.

I’ve managed to upload the route and on the watch it’s just showing a route as a small squiggle. I know there is no background map functionality on this watch which is fine - I’ll also take an os map and my phone with me anyway.

Just from a practical point of view, can I get turn by turn instruction on this watch? Googling suggests it can but before I set off Saturday morning it would be useful to know if it actually will pipe and tell me about turns coming up. If so will it be silent and just an arrow on the watch or will there be a beep?

New to this! Only ever used 1 bar mount Garmin on holiday which had turn by turn and it definitely had an arrow on screen but can’t remember if it beeped as well.
