Hi
Try the following steps, trying to open the app after each:
- Place your Apple Watch on its charger with power connected and also connect your iPhone to power.
- On your iPhone: open the Music app and start playing a song (through your iPhone speakers is fine).
- On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > scroll down and tap on the name of the app that won't open > turn off the option for Show App on Apple Watch > pause for a few moments > turn the option back on again.
If that does not resolve the issue, next try unpairing and re-pairing your watch:
- The Watch app on your iPhone takes watch backups automatically, including a fresh one when unpairing via the app.
- Choose to restore the watch (Restore from Backup) when offered the option during set up. Most data and settings will be restored, with some exceptions (eg Apple Pay cards, passcode).
- Unpair your Apple Watch and iPhone - Apple Support
- Set up your Apple Watch - Apple Support
