Cant update my watch

I’ve deleted everything off my watch I can and it won’t let me update. It keeps saying my storage is full. I’ve uninstalled everything, taken my pictures and music off..this is really frustrating

For songs, see the "Remove music from Apple Watch" section in:

Add music to Apple Watch - Apple Support

and for pictures, see the "Limit photo storage on Apple Watch section in:

Choose a photo album and manage storage on Apple Watch - Apple Support

Also, try unpairing and pairing your watch again and restoring from the backup just created in the unpairing process. This deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
