Apps installed on iPhone not showing in watch app

I recently got my Apple Watch and after setting it up I started to install my apps. However I noticed that many apps in my iPhone that have watch apps aren't showing in the Watch app so I may install them. I tried uninstalling the apps from the iPhone and reinstalling them, but they still didn't show in the Watch app.


Any ideas or anyone have that problem as well?.

Apple Watch Series 2, watchOS 3

Hi


The following steps may help (check after each):


If you have not yet done so, update your iPhone and Apple Watch to the latest software, starting with your iPhone:


Install any available updates for the apps on your iPhone:

  • On your iPhone, in the App Store app, go to: Updates (tab) > update all.


Restart both your iPhone and your Apple Watch (normally), turning both devices off together, then restarting your iPhone first:


Unpair and re-pair your watch:
