Problems with watchOS 8 and iOS 15

I can't add Health to the Watch App view (it was there before I updated WatchOS.) Also I can't create a screenshot of the Waatch. When I hold down the 2 buttons for do the capture the watch vibrates but I can't find the picture.

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
