The detection on AW Ultra on iOS 16 does not work well, I cannot see the application on location services on the iPhone, when turning on the hand-wash reminder function on the AW ultra, it clicks, but when you open it on the iPhone in the watch section, the ihed hand-wash reminder function immediately turns off.
I am asking for advice on how to make this application work.
Thank you
