Apple Watch Not Showing App Icon When I Get Notifications

Hi, on my Apple Watch Series 3, whenever I get notifications, the app icon never loads. I'm not sure what the issue is. I've tried turning it off and on, and then doing a soft reset as well. I really don't want to have to erase the entire thing and start all over if possible. See my screenshot below of the issue:

I have the same issue. I submitted a feedback request through the link that the other person required. I’ve read so many other forum threads and it seems to be a widespread issue across WatchOS 4 devices. Hopefully Apple releases a patch or software update soon to fix the problem. I attached a screenshot of the problem in case there is any misunderstanding.User uploaded file
