Have you tried the forced resets?


First force restart your iPhone by whatever method your version calls for.  As soon as you see the Apple logo force restart your watch by holding in the crown and side button for 10 seconds till you see the Apple logo then release.  Log into your iPhone and wait for your watch to boot, then log into it.


If that doesn't fix the issue you can try If an app unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
