Automations and Apple Watch Faces

I have a number of Automations on my iPhone & Apple Watch, and most of them work without an issue. However, I have a couple of them that don't work.

The two in particular that I'm talking about are supposed to change to a certain watch face and do a couple more things. I'll include screenshots to show exactly what I have.

I would appreciate it if anyone can help me figure out what's wrong.

Thank you.

Apple watch Ultra watch face change via phone app When I set a watch face on my iPhone 12 Pro max ape watch app, it doesn’t sync onto my watch. Nor has it been added as a face for my collection (on watch) I have to manually add the face and change it from the watch. The store set everything up, and I’ve started playing with the watch, but before I screw it up, I thought I’d ask the community for help. thanks in advance. Keeping up with tech can be fun but challenging! I remember dial up modems. Lol

iOS 18 dropped Apple Watch actions in Shortcuts Prior to installing iOS 18 I created personal automations using the Shortcuts app that would change my Apple Watch face based on certain triggers (time of day, starting or ending a workout, etc.). In iOS 18 any and all actions pertaining to the Apple Watch seemed to be removed from Shortcuts. My previously created personal automations for my Apple Watch are still there but I cannot create a new one that will control the Apple Watch. Is this a bug or was this intentionally removed?

Apple watch faces not syncing with phone "set as current watch face" does nothing new apple watch, all os up to date. If I make app changes from the watch app on my phone, the watch reflects the changes immediately, but I added several watch faces via the app, none of which appear on my watch, and when I press "set as current watch face" nothing happens. Again, there's clearly communication between the watch and phone as other changes are instantaneous, but watch faces seem to be a different story. I've reset everything, charged together overnight, done everything, to no results. TIA!
