Since update watch won't show weather or steps without lots of tapping

The weather issue is a bug. My solution was simply to use complications from a different weather app, in my case Carrot Weather. They work fine.

Steps, something Apple has never placed much emphasis on have been moved. I'm pretty sure that was intentional. You can certainly let Apple know your thoughts on the matter:

But, as I noted above, Apple has shown little interest in step tracking. Again, the solution here is another app. An app like StepsApp will allow you to place a complication with your steps directly on your watch face.

I believe it’s a bug in the new v10 software. Sometimes it shows the temperature, but most of the times just dashes.

Apple posted a kind of a workaround here in a Support document. The second step seems to help others in getting the weather displayed correctly.

Be aware this resets all privacy settings in every app. You have to grant permission to each app again for your Bluetooth, microphone, and location data, etcetera.

The location and privacy reset in Apple’s support document helped for me. Brought back the location option in the Watch’ weather setting as well.

I experienced the same issue, this is how I resolved it.

Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services [set to On] > Scroll to Weather > make sure it is set to Always.

I think you are correct, this is a bug. All bug reports can be posted direct to Apple's product teams using the Feedback pages

Good to know. Thanks!

Hey Lalimc,

We'd recommend reviewing this article as it provides steps to help customize your Apple Watch face: Customize the watch face - Apple Support

"Add complications to the watch face

You can add special features—called complications—to some watch faces, so you can instantly check things like stock prices, the weather report, or information from other apps you installed.

1. With the watch face showing, touch and hold the display, then tap Edit.
2. Swipe left all the way to the end.
3. If a face offers complications, they’re shown on the last screen.
4. Tap a complication to select it, then turn the Digital Crown to choose a new one—Activity or Heart Rate, for example.
5. When you’re finished, press the Digital Crown to save your changes, then tap the face to switch to it.
6. 

Some apps you get from the App Store also include complications."

Thanks!

You should let Apple know what you'd like to see here:

Meanwhile, there are hundreds, if not thousands of other weather apps in the App Store. Many of them have Watch modules. Perhaps one of them would suit you better. Most of them are free to try.

So, you tried installing a third-party weather app and use the complications from that and it still doesn't work?

You should report this to Apple:

The old weather complication brought up a weather wheel that showed the upcoming temperature in the next 12 hours, in white on black. With fiddling you can get a similar Watch OS but it shows the temperature in beige inside the wheel, in a smaller font. And on a background that seems to match the temperatures, like pale yellow. So it is also at impossible to see the temperature in beige on pale yellow in a smaller font.

They need to give us the old format so we don’t need a magnifying glass.

I've also come across discussions of it on the trade websites.

It sure sounds like you're both talking about the same thing. It's also the same thing I've experienced and that I've read articles about. Do you try the suggestions in the article CaptianFS linked to? Or did you try what I suggested?

Yes, it's a bug but there are still things you can do.

The temp rarely shows up

Both CaptainFS and I gave you options to fix that. If you don't want to use a third-party weather app, CaptainFS's solution is the one you want.
