Apple Watch Complication Leftover After Uninstall App

Hello,


on my iPhone, I had installed some apps, which leaves complications in Watch app. To be exact, following apps complications stays, even app is uninstalled:


  • OURA (com.ouraring.oura.watchapp)
  • Widgy (com.woodsign.widgy.watchkitapp)
  • Yr (no.nrk.yr.watchkitapp)


I tried reinstalling apps on iPhone and then uninstalling, but these complication leftovers still remains in list (of course, they show nothing, when app is uninstalled and you selected it for display on watchface). Can you let me know, how to get rid of them?


Thank you

Apple Watch Series 7

This is a problem for any app using WidgetKit to create the watch app complications. Now that Apple is forcing all devs to use WidgetKit we are seeing more of these showing up after the app has been uninstalled. I even have one for Apple’s own Audiobook app. At some point Apple will fix it.
