Apple Watch Keeps Asking For Location Permission

Apple watch prompt everyday, when I open a location based app, if I would give permission to my location.

This is very annoying because I use these apps a lot. I walk out the door, ask Siri to lock my front door and instead of just doing it and can go on my day, it won’t do it because *ping* *ping* I have to allow my location first. Resolve that, ask Siri again and then my door is finally locked.

It’s really growing on my nerves…

I already disconnected my watch, paired it to my phone again, up to date with system updates, my phone location settings on those apps are set to “Always”. Why can’t they be on my watch?

What about the Privacy & Security settings inside your watch, are they on?

From within your watch...

Settings, > Privacy & Security, > Location Services and the "Location Services" slider is green??

Then maybe scroll down the screen until you get to "Home".

Does it say "While Using"?

I don't have any fancy stuff that locks and unlocks my doors or turns on and off the lights. I'm not exactly sure what those sort of things would fall under, but I'm trying to help you out. It might be time for me to go buy some of these things ;-)
