How to install OneNote on Apple Watch

I am an avid user of Microsoft OneNote on Desktop and on my iOS devices (both iPhone & iPad); especially like how Sticky Notes from PC syncs to OneNote on iOS devices..

I am told that OneNote also has an App for the iWatch. If so how do I go about installing that? I have the "Auto App Install" feature activated on watch so that if an App on iPhone also works on iWatch then it automatically downloads on watch. But that doesn't seem to happen for OneNote. And I am not able to download manually either from the Appstore to watch.

Pls let me know what I am missing here. Really would like to use OneNote; especially sync Sticky Notes if possible

I uninstalled OneNote from my phone and reinstalled. During installation, did not see an option to install watch app. And still don't have it on my watch. Can you provide a step by step screen shots of what you are suggesting?

you don't mention what apple watch version

I have onenote on my apple watch 4, think I choose it from the watch app on my iphone back when I installed it

since then the watch got an update which gave the watch it's own app store

I just started that up and said search and dictated onenote and it show up in the watchs app store

so if your watchos has an app store try looking there

if it's an older model you may have to look in the watch app on the iphone

if it's a super old model ms may not support it

onenote is nice but the watch app is a bit crummy, it only sync if one manually sync from the OneNote app on the iphone and it does not support drawings, checkboxes or urls
