I have the Porsche app on my Apple Watch and it works well.

However, if I go more than a day or so without using it, it signs off and I have to authorize it through the phone app again. Frustrating b/c if my phone was at hand all the time, I probably wouldn't be using the watch app...

Just curious if I'm "special" or if this happens to everyone? Maybe a European privacy standards thing?

Any insight is appreciated.

I've not experienced that, but I keep the porsche widget on my watch screen and I'm pretty much always wearing it, so it may be checking in fairly often.

The porsche widget is in the middle and on the bottom left:

I have the Porsche crest on the face of my watch as well (which I wear all the time) so I guess I'm "special" when it comes to the need to reconnect all the time.

I have the same issue and it’s making the Apple Watch app useless. It’s already slow, but having to relogin literally every day means I never even try to use it now…
