Resolved Why won't my iWatch set a reminder using Siri?

Did you try asking it?
Maybe if you can provide some details as to what happens. I set reminders on the Apple Watch with Siri regularly.
"Set a reminder for tomorrow at 4PM"
"What do you want to be reminded about?"
"It's not an iWatch"

When I ask Siri to remind me to do something the iWatch says that I need will need to add an app to set reminders. I have my iWatch paired with my iPhone and I have set up my watch using iWatch app on my iPhone.
How are you asking Siri? Can you give examples? if you ask in the wrong way it might think you are asking for something else.
Requests that work for me....
"HeySiri, remind me to take out the trash when I get home"
"HeySiri, remind me to do laundry tomorrow"
"HeySiri, add tomatoes to the grocery list"
If it is not working even then, try just restarting your Watch. Sometimes it can get a little confused and a good reboot clears that up.
BTW Apple sells the Apple Watch, they do not sell an iWatch. If you have an actual iWatch, that is the source of the problem, right there. 😊

Lol, reading iWatch every time was bothering me as well.
