Sunrise / sunset application does not show time

The solution is luckily very simple. On your iPhone, go to to Settings: Restrictions: Location Services. Allow for changes. Allow Apple Watch to use location when in use. Then you may click "Do not allow changes" again.

I have been having this same problem for three days and nothing has worked. The issue happened when I took my iPhone into the Apple Store for repair. Funny, they broke it and they don't know how to fix it. Sigh.

Same for me. Spent an hour on the phone with Apple Support, with no solution. We tried all types of things (resetting the watch, turning location settings on/off, and more).

Same here - it's blank - glad to know I'm not the only one. Hopefully they will release an update that will fix it soon

Ok it's now working - not sure what happened except I walked outside to get mail and was out of range of my phone and wifi....not sure which of those factors made a difference but I looked down at my watch and there it was - sunset time.

Cheers,

It's working for me this morning as well. I took the watch with me on a walk, but did have my iPhone with me as well. So maybe something with being off of wifi, although I had that theory yesterday while on the support call with Apple and turning off wifi on my iPhone did not fix it. Maybe it's a length of time thing, and something to do with not getting the signal from the phone while on wifi?

Having this issue too. Hasn't resolved itself after two hours.

Nice one, I turned this off last night and today my sunset/sunrise wasn't updating. I'd tried all kinds, this fixed it. Thanks.

Switching on/off restrictions for location services doesn't helped immediately, but after switching off/on the Apple Watch, the sunset/sunrise time is showing again.

Switching watch faces also works and is faster than turning the watch on and off.

Hi folks! I have the same problem too. The time is missing in the complications for sunrise/sunset, but also in both the solar and astronomy watch faces.

So far none of the below mentioned measures helped:

On the watch:

* Turning the watch on/off

* Switching watch faces

On the iPhone:

* Killing/restarting apps like Settings and Apple Watch on the iPhone

* Turning Wifi on/off on the iPhone

* Turning Location for Watch Faces on/off

Currently I am waiting for Apple Care to come back with a solution.

BTW I also noticed that it takes quite some time to update the weather glance or app in the "current location" setting for this reason. However this update seems to work, albeit with a significant time lag.

UPDATE:

I made a hard reset on the iPhone, which in turn solved the issue in the first place. However the next day the times were gone again. Switching watch faces didn't help at first, but eventually after a couple minutes the location was updated for the watch face app.

Will have to continue to monitor this behavior.

what worked for me was turning my bluetooth off on my iPhone and letting the watch and phone work together over wifi. in order to get this to work if you have authentication on your wifi, another user pointed out that you may need to forget the wifi network on your phone and reconnect to allow your watch to recognize the wifi network. So....

Forgot network and reconnect

Turn bluetooth off on phone

Sunrise and sunset now showing

Turn bluetooth back on

Not sure what weird bug is causing this since it seems a variety of solutions have worked for people. Unfortunately nothing above worked for me so I wanted to chip in and include what worked for myself in case others are having the same issue. Thanks to all.

worked for me too, thank's for the tip !

in a wifi network, turning bluetooth off on iphone, check and refresh weather app on the watch, turning the watch bluetooth on, after that sunrise/sunset show correctly.

Okay. None of these worked for me but I'm going to tell everyone what did work for me. I spent hours with Apple chat and support and my last option was to send my watch in to be replaced. After factory reset of my phone and watch and many re pairs it still didn't work. The only thing that worked is going to settings: General: reset: reset location and privacy. After I did that nothing worked still yet. What this does is it makes the 'Apple watch faces' feature disappear in locations. Once you've done that you need to reset and repair the watch and it will ask you if you want to use location for watch face. Choose yes. Once all of this is done you need to turn Bluetooth off on the phone and put the watch in airplane mode. Turn the phone off and the watch off and then back on and make sure that bluetooth stays off. As long on the phone boots up first with the Bluetooth off and the watch in airplane mode and not connected you're good to go. Make sure you're in a good area for Gps signal and take the watch off airplane mode then turn the bluetooth on using the toggle on the iPhone. This is the one and only thing that has worked for me. I hope this helps for people with future problems.
