Apple Watch Ultra Compass App - Spinning red radar Since I updated my Apple Watch Ultra to new OS 9.5.2 the compass app is not working any more. I see only a constant spinning red radar. Meanwhile I tried all bug fixes I found in the web, the iPhone and the watch seemed to be configured correctly and all localization and privacy settings are checked. Unfortunately nothing seemed to work. Do you have same or know any special workaround or hint? Thanks.... :-)

Is the compass app on your phone?,if not install it and the watch compass app is installed at the same time,if it is then delete it and reinstall it.
