Installing new ap on iWatch

Trying to install an app on iWatch, it asks for an Apple id password but doesn't give a keyboard to enter letters/numbers. Only a drawing screen. Any suggestions? Am I missing something?

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 8

The drawing screen is probably so you can use scribble. To Use Scribble: Use your finger to write your message. To edit your message, turn the Digital Crown to move the cursor into position, then make your edit.

To use predictive text, tap a finished or unfinished word to highlight it, then turn the Digital Crown to see suggested words. Stop turning the Digital Crown to enter the highlighted suggestion.
