Apple Watch Compass

I cannot get the compass to show directions on my Apple Watch SE. Compass also doesn't work on my iPhone 12 Pro, but the Commander Compass app works on the phone so I know the sensors are working. Any ideas? Also, location services are turned on.

iPhone X compass Calibration My compass on my iPhone X will not calibrate. I have tried the “compass calibration” and other calibrations in the system services and location services but it will not calibrate. Though, my Apple Watch shows the correct direction and they are linked which is curious. Any help would be appreciated!
