Why is the temperature showing on my watch always different from the temperature on my husband's watch when they use the same app?

Why is the temperature showing on my watch always showing a different temperature than on my husband's watch when they both use the same weather app?

Hi Jodie


If you are each using the Weather app (which is included as part of iOS and watchOS), the following steps may help (followed by each of you):


On your iPhone, in the Weather app:

  • If using anything other than the current location (which is included by default), check that you have each added a common location / city.
  • To add another location, tap the "+" icon.


On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Weather > Default City > check that you have each selected the same location (for example: Current Location or Mount Laurel).


On your iPhone, go to: Settings > Privacy > Location Services:

  • Check that Location Services is turned on;
  • Check that Apple Watch Faces is set to While Using;
  • Check that Weather is set to Always;


On your iPhone, go to: Settings > General > Background App Refresh:

  • Check that Background App Refresh is enabled.
  • It may also help to enable the setting for Weather.


For the best performance from your watch, keep both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi permanently enabled on your iPhone:

  • iPhone: Settings > Bluetooth - on.
  • iPhone: Settings > Wi-Fi - on.
