Same paradigm as on a phone. Tap-and-hold on the apps screen until they start dancing, then tap the "x" to delete. Click the crown when finished.

There are still some you can't ditch.

Yes, I had to double check with my wife, but we both agreed I would not benefit from cycle tracking, so I deleted the app..... ;-)

But, as the article points out:

Not all of the built-in iOS and watchOS can be removed, however. Some, like Heart Rate and Messages, will remain.

Thanks, I thought you still couldn’t delete any of them. This is a good start, now they just need to let us delete 98% of the rest and we will be all set.

This is the only built in app I removed. Won’t do me any good for same reason. Didn’t feel like scrolling past it every time I tapped the crown and went to my app list (I use list mode instead of icon grid).

you can also do it on your iPhone , use the watch app, scroll down to "installed on apple watch" and turn off what you done want ...

if you do it will move to the bottom as "available apps" and you can re-install it later ...

Thanks, I know it's much faster and easier than doing on the watch
but the problem remain with major Apple apps
