I have my location using a preset location for weather. This works fine on phone (S22U), also shows correctly on watch.
BUT, Literally EVERY time I access weather on watch with Wi-Fi it begs for access to location service. I DO NOT WANT OR NEED THAT.
I already have it set.
So, is there a way to tell the watch to stick it and STOP constantly begging for access to location?
Seems positively ludicrous that you cannot tell it to just be happy with the preset location.

If not, will just add to list as yet another reason Samsung likes pussing me off.

And yes, have seen other listings comcerning weather, just could not easily find a match to my issue

Just give it location permissions. You can manage your weather location preferences in the wear app. Watch settings/apps/app settings/weather. After you enter the weather app, tap locations and edit the location. if the location you want is not the one in the list, nut add it, move it to the top or delete all locations but the correct one. It should mirror what you have on your phone. Have you actually turned off location prrmissions for the watch app, or just never gave it. There is an option to deny location permissio, so next time it asks you, just go to the settings and deny it. It should not bother you again. I don't understand why you wouldn't want the weather for where you are.
