Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Ever since iOS 13.1 and watchOS 6, I've had a hollow arrow 24/7 on both the watch and my phone. I isolated the issue to the weather compilation. The only way to remove the hollow arrow is to either disable location for weather or remove the weather complication from the watch face.
Does anyone else have this issue?
Apple Watch
No, this isn't how it should be. The hollow location arrow shows on both the watch control center and the phone's top bar.
This continues even if weather is set to a specific city, not current location. Like I said, this happened with iOS 13 and watchOS 6. Nothing has changed in my settings.
I have absolutely the same issue.
I am using Apple Watch 3 and it started appearing after I upgraded to iPhone 11 (from iPhone 6, thus no iOS 13 and no watchOS 6).
So, once I upgraded to iPhone 11, I obviously got iOS 13.1 and upgraded the watch to watchOS 6. Then this started happening. I thought it would be fixed with iOS 13.2 and watchOS 6.1, but it wasn't. It now seems like a feature, rather than a bug, but it's very annoying.
The hollow arrow stays on my phone permanently. It only disappears if I select a watch face that does not show the weather and also when the watch is locked. I obviously haven't changed any settings.
I haven't noticed battery drainage so far, though can't be completely sure.

Only the weather app is pulling the location request.
No I have a hollow blue one. As it should be. Do you have weather on? Then that’s why
Clearly it says Watch faces while using on your screen shot. So unless you don’t use your Watch faces I am stumped? And find my phone is on.
There isn't a purple hollow arrow next to Apple Watch Faces. Thus, it isn't the watch face, but the weather app itself. At least that is what I believe.
Yes I can see that. You have find my phone on. As this is how it tracks your watch if lost.
I have the same "problem" and I have tried everything but without solution, just by removing weather compilation from the clock screen
Weather complication always using location service (Hollow Arrow)
