Hello Bigdessert,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you're having issues with running a shortcut on your watch. First, try restarting your watch and the companion iPhone to see if that resolves the issue:


Restart your iPhone

Restart your Apple Watch


Then, try to run the shortcut again as described here: Run shortcuts from Apple Watch


"You can run a shortcut in the Shortcuts app on your Apple Watch or from a complication.

On Apple Watch, do one of the following:

  • From the Shortcuts app, tap a shortcut.
  • To run a shortcut as a complication, tap the complication on your watch face.


For more information on which shortcuts work well on your watch, see About actions in complicated shortcuts."



We hope this helps.


Cheers!
