How come I can’t remove my apps from my Apple Watch?

Why can’t I remove apps from my Apple Watch? My software is up to date on both my iPhone & watch.

What apps are you trying to remove, as some cannot be removed? And, what happens when you try to remove an app, are you seeing an error?

It isn’t working. When I try to remove either from my phone or from my watch it won’t budge. I can’t slide the button to off.

Do you mean how to do it, or that it’s not working?
