Apple Watch 8 missing icons after update Apple Watch OS to 9.3.1
I tried to shut down and turn on both Apple Watch 8 and iPhone 13 Pro (16.0.3) many times but did not work.
How can I fixed this?
Thank you
Apple Watch Series 8, watchOS 9
Hello,
Was that a simple power off and turn back on?
Yes. in setting - General -Shut Down
If so, try a Forced Restart by pressing and holding BOTH the Digital Crown AND the side button until the white Apple appears on the screen (approximately 10-20 seconds).
It did not work.
I updated iPhone to iOS 16.3.1 and restart iPhone and Apple watch.
It did not work.
Unpair apple watch and pair again.
It works. All app icons appear.
Thank you Pilerman for your advice.

Wow! It looks like all of the "Stock" apps are appearing.
You say that you "shut it down".

If that doesn't work or you've already tried that, I'd suggest that you run a backup of your phone and then erase the watch and start over.
