Hey everyone

just updated to WatchOS 8 and paired with my iPhone 13 Pro. I’ve been noticing that my location is being requested almost all the time on my iPhone and couldn’t figure out why.

I turned off my watch and the location hollow icon disappeared.
Anyone else having this issue? I’m just worried my battery life is going to take a hit from being pinged constantly.
 
Could be a new feature that will warn you when you left your watch at home?
