Apple Watch move rings and exercise app not showing after iPhone update

Since an iphone update last night, my watch won’t show move rings or exercise app.

I have updated and reset both phone and watch, unpaired and re-paired watch, followed every suggestion I could find online to no avail. Suggestions please?

Check that Fitness Tracking is still enabled after the update: on iPhone, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Motion & Fitness and turn on Fitness Tracking. Also check Watch app > Privacy > Fitness Tracking. If the Fitness or Workout app is missing, reinstall it from the App Store on the watch.

Thanks. I’ve tried all of those suggestions. All settings are enabled. When I visit app store apps show as present but won’t open.

Any more suggestiins?
