Remove Apple Watch app from iPhone

I just updated my iPhone 5 to IOS 8.2. For some reason I now have an Apple Watch app on my phone. How do I remove it? I don't intend to ever purchase an Apple Watch. Why on earth would Apple automatically install something like this on a phone?

iPhone 5, iOS 8.2

This app is part of the Apple default software and can't be removed. However, most users put it into a separate folder, just like the other apps that they don't want to have on the screen.

You may give Apple some feedback about that, if you think that there should be a possibility to do that:
