Apps Not Loading on new Apple Watch

Hello, just brought home a new watch - version 6. Watch is fully updated, but apps from my phone are not loading on the Watch, just the default apps. Support was not helpful, just sent a few links which weren't on point. Any advice?

In the Watch app on your paired iPhone, go to the bottom of the page where you can choose from 3rd party apps that can be installed on the watch.
