Friends not showing watch location (3 LTE) when iphone stays at home

Hi,


Find my friends is not showing my watch’s location (3 with LTE) when my iPhone stays at home, it always shows the iPhone‘s location („home“).


LTE on the watch is active and works fine (e.g. for a watch call), all iOSes are on latest version.


Any idea?


Thx and cheers

Daniel
