My Google Maps notifies me when my family member arrives at my workplace. This is highly important so I know when they are here to pick me up so I don't waste too much if their time.

 
So to make it easier I was going to turn the Google Maps notification on for my Galaxy Watch. However, Google Maps is not listed anywhere. I mean I looked through all the apps and even searched for it. Google Maps is not showing up. This is a big inconvenience to my work flow and ruins my time management.

How come I can turn on notifications for other apps such as messenger and Facebook without having to download it on my watch?
