Why did the stock weather app on my S6 stop working?

[AC Question]

The stock weather app on my S6 will no longer update. Therefore, I can no longer get weather on my GearS.

Welcome to the forums. Have you tried rebooting the phone?

Yes, I did that. The stock weather app continues to not be able to open or update.

Yes, I did that. The stock weather app continues to not be able to open or update.

Other weather applications might send to your watch. I'm not sure which ones though, but I would start with some of the more well known ones, like AccuWeather, or The Weather Channel. Wear support should be listed in the description, so you can at least check before downloading.

I use Accuweather on my phone too, but cannot see how to make my Gear link to it.

Which gear do you have?

 

[Garfield2AC]

Gear S

I keep running into threads that echo your issue. Not having much luck finding a list of apps able to run on your device. I'll look more tonight when I get home from work.

Update: I am still not finding much for apps. The Weather Channel may have a Gear friendly app. You can try that.
