Apple Watch weather complication won't show hourly view

Until recently, when I scrolled up on the weather complication, it would show me the hourly view of the selected data (i.e. temperature, conditions, chance of rain, etc) around the perimeter of the face. It seems that now, I can only see the data for the current time. I've tried every form of navigation that I can think of -- swiping up, rotating the crown, tapping, and nothing will show me the hourly view in the weather complication view.


I am on watchOS 10.1. I've seen the error reports about the weather complication not working and the fact that 10.1 fixes it, but that's not what this problem is. Has something changed? Do I need to reset something? Was the function removed in 10.1?

Today, my Apple Watch got back into the state where the weather complication would only show the current reading whether it was temperature, precipitation, etc. I restarted it, and now, each reading allows you to scroll down from the current reading to the hourly estimates around the dial that I find so much more useful than a single reading. I have no idea what causes it to get in the stuck state, but restarting it seems to have fixed it (again). Perhaps last time it wasn’t the update but the restart that fixed it.

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
