The live track mode works with the Garmin connect app, the watch communicates with the app only via blueetooth. You will definitely need an Android or IOS mobile device. A Wi-Fi connection will not help with this, it has other functions.

Strange that Garmin has not implemented this. Carrying around a small mobile LTE router will be so much easier than carrying these giant phones around when on a run.

This is a very special case. Not many users are carrying around LTE routers. Most users got their phones so they can take photos, call for help etc. A solution that works is that you get yourself a tiny phone that runs Android and Garmin Connect. A phone can also work as an LTE router and act as a wifi hotspot.

Here is a recent discussion about just that: Smallest possible android phone that can run Garmin Connect
