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It is a Tizen based watch and is outdated but it worked flawlessly and the new watches cannot rival the old one in battery range.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.

Hello, after using Locus Map 4 Gold on my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra (One UI version 8.0, Android version 16) alongside my Samsung Gear S3 watch (One UI version 1.5, Tizen version 4.0.0.7) without any issues for a long time, I noticed today that the map is no longer displayed on the watch. All I see is the message “No response from Locus Map.” The watch is properly paired with the smartphone; all other functions, such as displaying emails, SMS, or WhatsApp messages on the watch, are working fine. What could be causing this, and how can I fix it? Thank you very much for your feedback! Best regards, Michael

Hey everyone,
We really appreciate your loyalty and understand that this change has been a bit of a hassle. Unfortunately, supporting both Tizen and Wear OS has been a bit of a balancing act, and we've been working hard to keep things running smoothly. We really wanted to avoid having to take this step, but after thinking about the decision made by Samsung to stop supporting Tizen a year ago, and the fact that only a few people used the Tizen version of the Locus Map Watch add-on, as well as our promise to update the long-overlooked Wear OS add-on, we felt we had no choice but to take this step. We really hope you'll pamper yourselves with a beautiful new watch soon!

Thanks for your nice comment! I appreciate your work and fully understand your move. I just wanted to whine a bit. New watch will arrive today and I'm looking forward to an even better experience with Locus Map. Keep up the good work!

Again thanks to everyone commenting on this!
I have finally settled on the OnePlus Watch 3 and am quite happy with it so far. Battery life is comparable to my old Tizen Galaxy Watch (1) - R.I.P.!
The zooming in and out in the Locus Map app via the crown works smoothly and I do not think that I will miss the Galaxy rotating bezel.
