Apple Watch 3 don't have enough space for update

I uninstall all apps on my Apple Watch and still can't update to 7.4, because I don't have a 3.0GB of free space for 600MB update. Thats insane!

iPhone XS, iOS 14

Unpair your Apple Watch via the Watch app on your iPhone.

Then Re-pair your Apple Watch again,this usually frees up

enough storage space to update your watch.And without any loss of data.

Or this;

If you don’t have enough space to update your Apple Watch – Apple Support

Thanks I already do that, it took me half day.

Backup
unpair
pair
set as new watch
update
unpair
pair again
restore from backup.

Absolutely buls**t.

I switched to Apple years ago, because they did things that work easily and conveniently. This is neither easy nor convenient. This is not the quality I expect from a brand like Apple.

I can also deal with nonsense with much cheaper devices that do not have special fancy claims.
