If you’ve just got yourself a new Apple Watch and started playing around with it, you have probably reached the point where you want to start downloading new apps. This is not as simple as going to the app store and clicking install, so don’t worry if you got a little confused. 

In order to install apps on your device, you will need to download it onto your iPhone first through the Watch app on your device.

You may have noticed the message asking if you wanted to install all your apps now or later. If you select “Install Now”, any apps that are on your iPhone and are compatible with Apple Watch will automatically be installed.

To download the apps, open the Watch app on your device and tap on the App Store tab. Once you’ve done this, you will be able to scroll through the available apps and select which ones you want to install. If Automatic App Install is on, your apps will automatically install on your device. If this is not on, you will need to go to the My Watch tab, scroll down to Available Apps and click Install next to the ones you want to add.

Have an incredible time playing with your new Apple Watch and downloading all those new fun apps. There are so many interesting features to find and use with this high-tech smartwatch.
