How to install apps on kid's apple watch?

I want to install an app on my kid's apple watch and this app has a "phone companion" app, so it should be installed on the phone first. But when I install the app on my phone, it does not appear in the list of apps in the watches app. What is wrong?

Please check the notes in Set up Apple Watch for a family member - Apple Support and be aware not all third party apps will support Family Setup. Apple does not know which third party apps are compatible, unless the developers tell them.


If you are dealing with Family Setup and a third party app downloaded from the App Store you will probably need to ask the app developers for support.
