watchOS 6 broke my Apple watch

I tried restarting my Apple watch, my iPhone.

And still I get the message when I go the App Store from my iPhone that “The App Store, is now available on Apple Watch.”

How do I get rid of this message and go to the App store on the iPhone for the Apple Watch?

It is probably something easy that I must do but I just can’t get passed it 😅
 
As the message says, the App Store is gone from the Watch app on iPhone. You'll need to either browse the App Store directly on the watch, or on your iPhone hit the link on the App Store page in the Watch app to be taken to the regular App Store.

I don’t see a link on the App store page? I even tried randomly clicking across the entire screen in case I am blind, but that also didn’t help.
 
You don't have this button?

It just takes you to the Apple Watch Apps category in the regular App Store app.

Hmm, I don’t have that button either. I thought this whole time you can only browse watch apps on the watch with WatchOS 6. Finding new bugs every day.

Nope. That is interesting. I will force restart again and if this will not fix it I will have to call Apple to fix this.

this really shouldn’t require a call to Apple. Just go to the regular App Store on your phone. Not the watch app. You can find all the watch apps your little heart desires in the actual App Store.
 
I'm on the 13.1 beta, and apparently the button is in 13.1 but not 13.0. So hang in there until tomorrow and you'll get the button too. :)

Not once, ever did I even use the App Store tab in the Watch app. To be honest I didn't even notice it was there. I noticed it on my first dig about the watch app, and forgot about it. When I downloaded from the regular App Store it was there, so no need for a special Watch version
