The Dark Sky complication is an extra cost option, by subscription, if I recall correctly.

Bad form I say, but then I don't like subscription models at all and avoid them whenever possible.

But they are the way of the future.

Well as stated in watchOS 5 beta thread, the current build has broken some complications. I actually switched to Carrot Weather since it can use Dark Sky for weather information and the Dark Sky complication was always problematic for me.

While I LOVE Darksky, it hasn't worked right on my watch in a LONG time! I now just use the stock weather app. :)

Same. Neither Carrot Weather or Dark Sky has updated in a while on my watch so I’m currently using the stock weather app.

Dark Sky is a purchasable app (I believe $3.99); there is no in app subscription for the complication.

But, I also use the stock weather complication. It always seems to update fine.

I use BeWeather2 for my watch weather complications. It works pretty good. I'm on Apple Watch OS 4.3.2...

Has anyone noticed the updated Dark Sky app? It's really great, and the complication now includes both the temperature and either a small icon to tell you the conditions (sun, cloud, rain, etc).
