Naming a few in no particular order...
Workoutdoors - best fitness and exercise app there is (developer is an active member)
Waterminder - track fluid intake
Stocard - keep store cards on the watch. No more carrying Walgreens, Kroger and the like
Watch Feeds - Get RSS feeds on your watch. Easy to read and also get a notification every time a new article is posted on MR 😀
OTP Auth - 2 FA app. Best there is
wHealth - excellent fitness and health stats app with a plethora of options and complications (developer is an active member here)
Tempo - excellent running and walking stats app with good complications
Heart Analyzer - lots of graphs and daily stats about your heart functions
AutoSleep
Heart Reports - Extensive PDF charting of your heart health that can be share with your provider or just for your own use. (developer is an active member here)
Deliveries app
Strava
News Explorer - excellent news reader. Much better than Apple News

One of my favorite watch apps. Has good complications and a useful watch app. Also believe it was free.
My problem with WaterMinder is that it doesn’t send me reminders like I set it up.. so it’s basically useless for me.

Other great apps:
- Transit
- Things
- Breathable
- Drafts

If you'd like to have accurate information about the moon, Geneva Moon is the one to get. Apple moon complication doesn't show the true representation of the moon on the day/night.
And if you want to set your goal for something, anything. Says.. to have 6 glasses of water a day, to walk 3 miles a day etc. Streak is the app you should get. It works well with Siri Shortcuts and also has watch app that works great.

AnyList is great.
My favorite app (when it works!) is Audible. Listening to an audiobook when I walk or jog in the pool—with just my Watch—is magical.
Outcast is an amazing stand-alone podcast app - you can also import OPML on the iPhone to get you started.
Audible is also really good except you have to sync from the phone still.
I also love Broadcasts - it’s for live streaming Ice cast servers so I can from the watch tune into Relay.fm and Twit.tv when they are live - when doing this on cellular be prepared for some fast battery drain though! Incredible that this can be done.
Chirp is my favorite Twitter client for the watch.

It’s decades since I last heard reference to a RPN calculator. Takes me back to university days (mid 70’s!)

I just took a quick look at Endel. The developers sure collect a lot of information they really don't need to be collecting from a user. It is also expensive at $60 a year and $249 lifetime.

The pricing has increased since I first started using it, out of interest which info are you referring to? I should probably take more notice of these things!
