I would like to receive weather info for a fixed location (zip code in the U.S.) on my GT2 rather than tracking current location. Is it possible to disable GPS location access for the Health App and just supply that single location?
that is not possible. as soon as the watch is connected to the phone, it will pick up the current location.

Is anyone elses weather location on their clock just showing their contry rather than their city / location?
I can't get mine to show my location, however google webpage / maps can see i am in bristol
anyone got a fix for this?
Anyone know how to loosen up the access to location services per app or something?
I've had this issue when running Oreo on the S8 as well, so I think it's Oreo related. Really annoying that I'm having to turn on High Accuracy a lot more just to get location for several apps.
So basically, I'm getting no location in say, the Starbucks app, and it asks me to turn on location services (I'm already on Battery Saving, and allowing apps to access location data), and I have to do so to get any location to the app.
I just got my new Galaxy Watch and it works great except for the weather. It keep saying "add location", it opens a location list on my phone and I added a few.
However my watch still believes there is no location, and I have no weather, neither on the widget not on the watch face... Is there any way to force the watch to synchronize the locations?
Try to remove any added locations and run only the current one. I don't know if this is the solution, but now it works for me, as i had the same problem (more or less)
On my phone, when I tap the icon to turn on the GPS, there is a pop up messages that reads:
Turn on Location
Location may use sources like GPS, Wi-Fi mobile networks, and sensors...Is there a way to enable the GPS without having to share location data with Google? Is there a way to use GPS within a Google app, say Maps, without having to share location data with Google?
