Error: Unable to Install "App" Please try again later, on Apple Watch Ultra.

Recently, after setting up my Apple Watch Ultra 1 I noticed that all Built-in apps such as "Activity, Alarms, Music, Workout, Calculator, Find My & Others" don't seem to install. I keep getting an error message saying [Unable to Install "App" Please try again later.]


Note that:

  1. I have both the latest WatchOs Update 10.4 and updates 17.4.1 for the iPhone 15 Pro
  2. I tried reseting (Netwrok settings on the iPhone), unpairing & pairing multiple times and still nothing
  3. I tried trouble shooting using Airplane mode
  4. Deleting said apps is not working
  5. My internet is fast
  6. I still get notifications and calls but the main apps are not working.


I'm running out of options, Please Help.

Hi Rheil07

Thank you for your thoughtfully prepared post to the community!


You can check whether the system is temporarily unavailable: ie: Check the System Status page to see if there are any outages. Apple - Support - System Status


Some watchOS features are not currently available in every region or language.

You may want to check: watchOS - Feature Availability - Apple


Wondering if you tried using the paired iPhone to install apps:

See: Download apps on your Apple Watch - Apple Support


If needed: You may want to contact Apple's Watch Support through their website:

ie:There is a "Get Support" link (scroll to the very bottom) on their webpage (link below)

Apple Watch - Official Apple Support

or

You may want to send feedback to reach those who work behind-the=scenes at Apple. They will likely not reply, yet your feedback will reach those who can make changes. If others are also experiencing app-issues, they may be addressed in a future update.

Web-form for feedback: Feedback - Watch - Apple


All the best :-)

If the reply given earlier in this discussion does not help you solve the situation,

see this article from Apple support (link below):

See how to: Get more apps on Apple Watch Ultra - Apple Support

Eg. says:

"Install apps you already have on iPhone:


By default, apps on your iPhone that have a watchOS app available are automatically installed and appear on the Home Screen. To instead choose to install specific apps, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap My Watch, tap General, then turn off Automatic App Install.
  3. Tap My Watch, then scroll down to Available Apps.
  4. Tap Install next to the apps you want to install."
