Apple Watch app icon missing

The Contacts app is missing from the face of my watch. How can I restore.?


It is listed on the iPhone Watch app installed app list.

Just go to your iPhone and Tap on the App Store App...tap on Search (at the bottom right side of the screen)..next at the top type in Contacts....then download it again. Its an Apple App and cannot be deleted...just hidden. Chances are it is in with another App. It should also show in your Apple Watch App on your iPhone..tap on it and then tap on "Mirror my iPhone".
