Fixed location in Connect App not working

Hi,

Why I can’t set fixed location in Connect app? (IOS 17.0.3 iPhone 13 Pro Connect App 4.72.0.45)

Tried many edifferent ways: uninstall app, deregister device…nothing helped. Today the app was updated but nothing changed.

    Hey!
    I received a response from Garmin support regarding this issue:

    Support: Yes I have been informed the weather location setting is no longer available for the fenix 7 and other modern wearables. We default to phone location now, but you can add cities on the device itself from the weather widget itself. This was implemented with the 14.68 update of the Fenix ​​7, which is why it does not show in connect any longer. I deeply apologize for all of the confusion.

    But this don't solve the problem because you can have and look several cities on weather widget but the widget take as default location "current location" not the fixed/added city.

    The goal would be can select city as default weather info on widget.

    True, basically just adds another location to select rather than using the "near me." Option. Doesn't change the default current location.

    Shame I cannot do the same on my Forerunner 255. What a joke! I received an automatic update to the watch software and now the option to use a fixed location vanished
