Somehow the app got deleted from your Apple Watch. Most likely an accident or fat fingers. You can download and reinstall any missing (Apple original) apps from the App Store, you should be able to find it and fix the problem.


Hint: I found the App Store has a lot of lookalike (third party) Oxygen apps which all offer "in-app" purchases. These are NOT the Apple oxygen app. Go to the online user guide Measure blood oxygen levels on Apple Watch (Apple Watch Series 6 and Apple Watch Series 7 only) - Apple Support and note the icon you should find attached to the real Apple Blood Oxygen app.
