Hi,
I have an Apple Watch S0 (running wOS 3.1) and an iPhone 5S (running iOS 10.2) and I can't open ANY new App I download from the AppStore or Apps I update on my Watch...
More Infos?
-The Apps I got a few weeks ago do work
-I did all the basic steps (restart/reset (of the watch) )
-If I connect the Watch to any other iPhone it works
-One App works (Lufthansa)

I don't want to reset my phone. Please help me :D

Wow yeah this happened to me with the 1st apple watch. I could not open many apps for like 6 months of use. I tried every fix that was on this board and nothing. They only thing that works was resetting it all. It took hours, especially with the number of apps and music files. And then to wait for the watch. I lost an evening, but I gained being able to open and use watch apps.

I think I posted instructions on what worked for me. I'll see if i can find it but it's been a few years
