Hello,
I have updated and restored my new Watch.
Now I'm missing the Health App at my Watch.
How can I activate or install the Health App?
Thank you!

Hi
The Health app is not supposed to be on your watch - nor can it be added to it.
Health and fitness data from Apple Watch, iPhone and any other data sources is aggregated within the Health app on your iPhone. The app presents data in charts that take account of all data sources, without double counting any data that may be provided by multiple sources for the same time period (such as steps data, when you are both wearing your watch and carrying your iPhone).
More information:
Use the Health app on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support

The Heartbeat Glance (which is used to manually measure your heart rate on your watch) is not an app, so there is not supposed to be - and nor is there - an icon for it on the Home screen on your watch, where icons for installed apps are shown. (The Home screen is accessed by pressing once on the Digital Crown).
Instead, when viewing the time on your watch face: swipe up on the screen, then swipe left / right until you find the Heartbeat Glance. Swipe down on the screen to exit.
More information:
If it is not already included within Glances, to add the Heartbeat Glance to your watch:
- On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Glances > tap on Edit (upper-right) > in the Do Not Include section, tap on the "+" sign next to "Heartbeat" > tap on Done (upper-right).
The built-in health and fitness apps on your watch are:
The Activity app:
The Workout app:

Hi, I have had it on the Watch before I updated and restored it! I used it!
You definitely did not have the Health app on your Apple Watch - you can only be referring to a different app.
Did you have a third-party health app installed, like "Health Mate"?
Please explain how you accessed the app and what you used it for.
I used the App to measure ones pulse! It was the same icon like at the iPhone, white with the red heart!
