    Hi antonleontiev,

    I understand that after updating your iPhone to iOS 10, Weather is no longer finding your location. I know it's important to have accurate information, so I'm happy to provide some help for this.

    When you opened Weather for the first time, it should have requested permission to your location:
    About privacy and Location Services - Apple Support

    Give apps permission to use your Location

    The first time an app tries to access your location, even in the background, it will ask for your permission. You'll see which app is asking for permission to use your location, and the app's developer may also explain how their app uses your location.

    Some apps will ask to use your location only while the app is in use. An app is considered "in use" when you're actively using it in the foreground, or when it's in use in the background, which the status bar will indicate.

    Other apps will ask for access to your location even when the app isn't in use. When you allow an app to always use your location, iOS will remind you which apps are able to use your location after an app uses your location in the background.

     


    If you did not get this prompt, or accidentally denied it access, you can change your location settings here:

    Turn Location Services on or off

    You can turn Location Services on or off at Settings > Privacy > Location Services. You can turn Location Services on either during the Setup Assistant process or later through the Location Services setting. You can individually control which apps and system services have access to Location Services data. When Location Services are off, apps can't use your location in the foreground or background. This will limit the performance of various Apple and third-party apps.

    Settings > Privacy > Location Services.

     

    Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services.

     


    If you continue to have troubles with this, let us know any troubleshooting you've tried for this issue.

    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities, cheers!

    Try turning off access to your location for the weather app under settings, then back on. If that doesn't work, delete that app, go into the app store, search for weather and redownload it.

    Try this.

    Go to "cellular" in Settings

    Scroll down to Weather

    Ensure that it is toggled "on"
