orange square inside orange circle status for apple watch

I’m trying to update my watch on my phone and I have an orange square inside an orange circle as the status. What does this mean and how Can I get these apps to install onto Watch?

I have recently updated all for the last download. I have an Apple Watch series one and an iPhone 8.

You appear to be referring to the app installation progress indicator.
