After updating to v4.34.1 on Android, my Galaxy Watch 3 says "No response from Locus Maps". After starting it for the first time with the Watch connected via Bluetooth, it requested permission to send data to Samsung accessories which I granted. But then the Watch does not seem to get any data
Galaxy watch stopped working with newest version
Not a Problem
I had never any problems with my Galaxy watch (1) and LM. If I now start the Locus Map app in the phone I get "no connection to Locus Map" and a blank map.
I think it worked with the 4.34.0 and now does not anymore with 4.34.1.
It is a Tizen based watch and is outdated but it worked flawlessly and the new watches cannot rival the old one in battery range.
The same problem
What model phone do you have? I just upgraded from a Samsung S22+ to a S26+. During setup and the Smartswitch processing, it told me that my old Tizen watch was no longer supported. Nope - wouldn't connect via Bluetooth any longer. So I upgraded to the Watch 8 also. The Watch OS version of Locus works fine on the watch.
It doesn't sound like that's your issue. But I'm just saying, if at some point you upgrade your phone you'll have a decision to make, too.

I just saw that support for Tizen, which is the operating system of the Galaxy Watch 1 (which was only called Galaxy Watch at that time), was discontinued with Locus Map 4.34.0.
If course this is how things go, but I am still sad since I used that watch only for Locus Map and it was doing it perfectly. Also, newer watches have shorter battery life because WearOS (the operating system on newer Galaxy Watches) consumes more battery.
So, I will have to buy a new watch (Galaxy Watch 8 or Ultra or One Plus Watch 3) although everything was fine for me.

Use the Watch 8 Classic; it has a rotating bezel. This allows you to zoom while wearing gloves.

Hi all,
we have removed support for the Tizen-operated wearables as the system is no longer supported by its creator, Samsung, and the Galaxy app store, in which we offered the Locus Map Watch add-on.
