On my watch face when I first bought it new it used to change locations as I would travel, now it seems that it only stays as my hometown for weather. If I click on it I can see weather for my current location but I want it to change based on location automatically like my iPhone. Can anyone help me in the right direction..? Thank you.

Via the Watch app, select "My Watch" at the bottom of the screen, if not already selected. Scroll up to find "Weather" and then select it. Where is states "Default City", make sure that "Current Location" is chosen.

Thank you! It was selected for my town I’ll have to see tomorrow when I go out of town and see if it changes automatically now, but I did switch it to current location just now I’ll report back it it doesn’t work for me.

Out of curiosity, I just checked mine and there is no option for “current location.” Just the list of cities I have on my iPhone.

On your iPhone, settings / privacy / location services. Check to see if “weather” is set to “always”. If not, that probably explains why the watch can’t get access to current location.

Thanks! That worked. I had the weather Channel marked always but not weather so I changed it to always too.
