Apple Watch can’t install new apps

I have the oldest version of Apple Watch and have an app called Hole 19 that was working great up to last week! Now it uninstalled and won’t reinstall, very odd. Any help? I’ve tried deleting it, restarting my iPhone and watch etc. So frustrating!

Native apple apps not downloading? Deleted the Apple Watch app off of my phone when I got it (11 Pro Max). Have been gifted an Apple Watch so wanted to re-download the app. Except...I can’t. I can’t download any Apple app; getting an error message that says to try again later. Tried to download the Watch app on both my phone and a different one - are apple apps not working? Have tried every solution possible to fix it (including hard reset, changing date/time settings, turning airplane mode on and off, signing in/out of Apple ID). Nothing seems to work.

apple watch app Recently purchased an apple watch 6. I had previously had an apple watch 3 however broke it, and subsequently "removed " the app from my phone (11) I now want to put the app back on my phone, however, when i go to app store, it just says "open", so i do that and can see everything ok. However once i close that on my phone, if i go to look for the app it is nowhere to be seen. I have read a few of the articles on here, but none of them seem to work. Short of resetting my phone, which I'm not keen on, i don't know what to do. Please help!!!!

You have not told us your WatchOS version or iOS version. WatchOS 3 or later is required for this app.

Be certain your iPhone is nearby and on Wi-Fi during the loading process to your Apple Watch.

My watch says version 4.3.2, but like I said, the app was working perfectly upto last week, when it just uninstalled on my watch and now

when I try to install it, it just seems to be loading forever. I’ve left it running for 2 days and no joy
