I have now reset my phone and watch 3 times, as well as tried changing the clock face a few times. I guess I’m maybe okay waiting anywhere from 15-60 min for an update 😱🙄🙄🙄?? Oh that’s right, apple only updates every like millisecond. I live in Colorado and weather changes fast. It’s 45 degrees here and my watch has been stuck saying 32 for at least the last 8-10 HOURS! I really wish that Fitbit would  cease false adverting! Fitbit DOES NOT SELL smart watches; they sell fitness trackers with very caveman like smart watch features. Great ideas but man Fitbit is getting crushed with other providers. So frustrating with the amount of money I spent.

@ColoradoBo  - for the weather or other features to update the watch has to be able to connect to the phone, and the phone has to have a good network connection.

 

Also depending on where you are seeing the weather on your watch there may be different issues.

 

If you swipe bottom edge up the weather should update if properly configured. If it is in a clock face it may update less frequently.

 

How frequently the built-in weather actually goes for the most recent information may be a separate issue.
