Unable to install “app” try again later

I recently swapped my iWatch series 3 to 5, I however discovered that some apps on the watch are not fully activated on the screen, upon clicking on it to install, I usually get an error message saying that app can’t be installed right that I should try again later.

Apps like Calculator,Compass,google map and others aren’t installing.

Even going through app store on my watch it’s just rolling. Note that my internet is very fast.

i get notifications and all, but this is just not installing.


solution please

Apple Watch Series 5, 7

Yes that should be all fine. Maybe you should go thru the unpair and re-pair sequence twice again. First time around select Set Up as New and then you will definitely get all built-in apps and factory defaults as well. Then during the second unpair and re-pair, select the original backup. That will bring back your set of apps and their data. That should take care of this issue.
