Weather widget not working, not syncing locations with phone - Samsung Galaxy Watch

I just got my new Galaxy Watch and it works great except for the weather. It keep saying "add location", it opens a location list on my phone and I added a few.
However my watch still believes there is no location, and I have no weather, neither on the widget not on the watch face... Is there any way to force the watch to synchronize the locations?

Try to remove any added locations and run only the current one. I don't know if this is the solution, but now it works for me, as i had the same problem (more or less)

[Q] No Weather Data Available

the weather widget on hy home screen says "no weather data available"
I have wifi connection, and have GPS turned on for my location.
If I tap the weather widget and open the weather app it says " unable to display current weather, tap refresh for updates.... I tap refresh it gives the same message... I tap a second time.. and voila.. the weather appears.
when i open weather settings.. the scheduled sync option is greyed out
and update schedule every hour is also greyed out
if I go to Account & sync settings and open weather... the update schedule "every hour is not greyed out but in bold ??
how do I just get this to update my wether every hour?
I think this is a problem with the weather supplier, which is AccuWeather. I had this problem last week. I could get weather for certain areas (typically larger cities), but not my location. After 4-5 days it suddenly started working again.
Ive noticed it to be sporadic at times, then hour or so later it works again.
AccuWeather might be culprit as i've used PC apps that use their data which also sometimes drops out.
i cant see any option to change the weather supplier. It seems to happen consistently.. not just occasionally...

Google now - get rid of daily work alert

Guys
Is there a way to delete the work location? It seems I need to put something in there and don't have a daily work location. I don't mind when Google now sees an appointment in my calendar for a particular location but when my calendar is empty, I rather not have the alert
Thanks
Have you tried looking at the Google Now settings?
yup every tab in there. I can change the work location address but not delete it
You can also disable the notification.
Go to Google maps on a browser you are logged in with your Google account on. Click my places and edit / delete your work location. Don't know if it works but worth a shot.
Swype'ed on my CM10 Galaxy Nexus
Went to google maps and it did show under places and I deleted it. However, it still shows up under google now on my phone.Tried rebooting but didn't help
Why are you trying to remove the saved location? Did you try the setting to just disable the notification?
If I disable the notification, it'll disable everything from Home and I don't want that. I want it to give me notifications when something is in my calendar but don't want a default notification to work because I don't go to my work location every day
I have settings specifically for "Before commute from home" and "Before commute to home". I'm pretty sure those are only for work and have nothing to do with travel time to other meetings in your calendar.

the new update?

Anyone finding the reason for the new update?
I found something the update has changed, after updating the app "Google Earth" last night and then the update seemed to self install (I had been hitting "Install Later" "4 hours" for weeks).
First it is important to notice the Google Earth changes, the new app was in the top of the YouTube recommendations last night, and I wanted an upgrade to Google Earth for a while (in desktop it doesn't play well with touchscrren)=I updated it (on my phone) as soon as I could find it in the play store, like an hour after I watched the vid it showed up there as update.
So the second I updated it it changed the inner workings of Google on my phone and my location got turned on. I was suddenly assaulted with weather info (which I never am) via the lockscreen widget of weather. So I went to "location" in settings and turned it off. But it still said weather on lockscreen.
So then I shut off and restarted, and still there was weather info....this was strange. I never saw the location in settings get overridden from something before. I looked harder under the location, and clicked all the items in there till I found a list of google apps in one of the location dropdowns.
As it turns out, the "permissions" for location in google apps (like play services, google app, gmail, plus a few more) were set to allow location. So I went thru the listed (seven) google functions and apps and shut off their location permission. Some I had to do inside the app permissions (gmail) others I was able to change right inside the location settings.
So then, after I had just restarted a second time, finding NO weather on lockscreen to make sure my changes took hold, I was going to click my google app folder on my homescreen, to check the gmail app and instead the update started. I never saw the usual update request screen and never had a chance to hit "don't install"
So it took about 15-20 min to install the ~25 MB update. Then afters it all seems like normal. I saw and still see, no trace of the google location access problem. The "recent requests" 4 instances inside "location" in settings which was up to 4 during the terrifying moments of location availability by google, and weather info showing, was again like normal, down to 2. The permissions of the Google apps were back to no location access.
So I have a theory that it was to remove the google app changes inside the htc sense version which took place from the (new) Google Earth install. It is a RARE Google earth update, as it hadn't been updated in over a year (and it made no difference in the phone version's MAP, dont believe the lies about detail shown in the promo video).
This could be way off, it could just be that I reached some kind of limit to the "install later" on the update...but that doesn't make sense to me.
Anyone got a similar experience with the Earth app update and the HTC update?
Somethin wrong wit my phone since this update. It is running out of battery already at 80% and same yesterday. Just got up, just barely used it at all for anything.

Google Feed/At A Glance widget not working

I noticed today that my Google Feed isn't updating. If I swipe left on my home screen I see my feed with cards but they are the same ones that been there for a long time. If I pull down to update I get a "Can't reach your feed at the moment" message and no cards show. If I lock the phone and unlock it I get the old out of date cards back but still nothing new.
I have also noticed that the weather isn't showing in the "At A Glance" widget on the home screen.
Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas on how to fix? I have restarted and cleared the cache of the Google app and neither have worked. The only other thing I can think of is going to Apps > Google > Storage > Manage Space > Clear All Data but clears search data, search history and feed settings which are used to populate the feed with relevant data. It would have to be set up again(sports teams, stocks, etc) and have rebuild search data which takes time. If that will fix the issue I'll do it but I'd hate to have it not fix the issue and have to start over for no reason.
Same issue here all day on my P2XL and on my wife's Pixel XL.
I found that If I disable the weather updates, my feed starts working again. So it looks like it has to do with the news and weather app. I tried to uninstall/reinstall it, didn't help.
I'm having the same issue. Interestingly though, if you uninstall the updates for the Google app, it works just fine.
Same issue with me too. Tried everything yet ain't working. Running 8.1 in pixel 2 xl
Seems like it's something related to weather updates from within google app, turns out if you disable it from "customize feed" your cards will be back to normal at the loss of weather info on the app and launcher. Glad I'm not alone tho

Yeah glad that I'm not alone too. Let's see what happens.
I was also having this issue but it started working fine 5-10 min ago.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using XDA Labs
I ran into this exact issue with my regular pixel 2 about 1 hour ago. When i connected to my wifi i got a system notification saying my streaming service stopped for google (was confused what that meant) but after that my feed did not work. Weather was not showing up in the "at a glance" app as well. I tried to uninstall google app updates, deleted all data google app data, removed my google account and then re added it, and did multiple reboots while on mobile data and wifi. All efforts was not successful. I also was getting the error message "we cannot reach your feed right now" on the google app while the updates were uninstalled.
Having the same issue. Can't reach the feed since yesterday!
Same here, on Pixel 2XL for me and Pixel 2 for two of my friends. Weather doesn't show up in At A Glance widget, disabling it in the feed does nothing to the feed, and the phone doesn't react to "Hey Google", but only "Ok Google" despite retraining the voice model. There's a Reddit thread going on this https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixe...able_right_now_cant_reach_your_feed/?sort=new and I also spoke to Google Support at length, they've escalated this to their engineering team, since they have lots of reports of this today. They are asking everyone to send feedback from the Google Now app/feed with the screenshot -- that way they can determine the scope of who's affected
Uninstalled the updates and restarted... Now it works fine.

Yes, I noticed the same thing. Uninstalled the latest version and went back to the factory version and it works. Although, I did notice all the cards were very old items ( 7+ hours old) but I'm not sure if that's just because there really is nothing recent.
Of everyone who is having this issue how many are in the western United States (New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona)?
Hi all,
I have started experiencing the similar issue from today. Def has something to do with Google App update as in "What's New" section it does refer to changes to feed notification etc.
Things I have tried since I first started noticing the issue:
1. Phone restart.
2. Shut down phone, wait and restart
3. Clear data of Google App along side disabled/enabled app. (Ended up losing Google assistant setup and had to redo it)
4. Uninstalled Google App updates and restarted.
Only thing that has worked is that I have selected weather from feed settings and feed is back.
I have also sent feedback to Google with screenshots.
Cheers.

Let's see how'll Google solve this.
Same here. Moto x play
Oops...they did it again...Google has mastered the art of breaking what's working very well! They keep updating apps that only break many other dependent apps...I'm on the Pixel XL and it's feed seem to work when I remove the weather feed from it...looks like google messed up the weather service...
Back in business...
Is it fixed yet or still onn with the bug
9:45 PST and it's still not fixed. I believe there is a wide spread problem with Google and also PlayStation Network.
PSN has been wonky since Friday and Google in my area has been wonky since Saturday.

Weather not working on GWA2

Hey all,
I've recently gotten the Galaxy Watch Active 2, and already gotten around to changing the region to KOO. Now have the latest Tizen 5.
However, I'm having issues with a few things. Most importantly, the Weather app on the watch wants me to add a location, so I click "add", and it tells me to add it on my phone. And on my phone, it sends me to the Weather app settings within the Wearable app, and I get a toast notification saying "Couldn't add location. Connect to a network and try again.". Same happens when I tap on "locations" in the settings manually.
I don't have a Samsung phone, so I have no dedicated Samsung Weather app. Could that be the issue? Or what's the problem?
P.S. the same issue was there on Tizen 4, so it's not a Tizen 5 bug
Nevermind, I figured it out! I installed the Samsung Weather Forecast app from apkmirror and restarted my phone afterwards. Not sure which of those fixed it. Maybe both. But it thankfully works now!
Good to know, glad it's recovered. cheers
