Seems like everyday a new app from my iphone appears on my watch. It was CNBC today, United Airlines yesterday and another random one the day prior. I delete them immediately and they haven't repopulated, but was wondering if anyone else had this issue and how they resolved it.
Got a tip for us?

Randomly adding apps to my watch

Right that option was has been turned off since day 1 for me, so that unfortunately is not the issue
It seems like if an app is updated and includes an Apple Watch app it automatically adds it. I noticed apps installed on the watch that I didn't tell it to install. I verified the automatic setting was off. I then went into the app store on my iPhone and noticed the ones that were just added on my watch had just updated on my phone. Hope they fix it as it's annoying and not what I think should happen.
I think you are correct. It seems like there is a constant stream of new apps being added to my phone daily and it has become very annoying. I assume no one has found a fix to this yet?
Apparently the setting in the apple watch app is broken. I have to pick the damn things off every few days. They're like digital lice or something.
I have several mystery circles with a white outline on my watch that don't show in the organize section of the watch app. I've also noticed that it's ridiculously slow to remove an app, and that if I select to not show the app and back up a screen to the app list, it resets back to show the app on the watch.
