What happened

As long as the tweak is enabled for an iOS app, the corresponding watchOS app will be automatically uninstalled once the watch is connected to the phone.
To reproduce:

  1. Install an iOS app with watchOS component, for example WeChat.
  2. Use the Watch manager app to install the watchOS app to your Apple Watch. The watch app should now appear on your watch screen.
  3. Enable tweak for the iOS app in Bootstrap. Bang! the watch app disappears. Cannot reinstall it with tweak enabled because the iOS app also disappears in the Watch manager app.
  4. Disable the tweak, relaunch Watch manager app, the watch app can be installed again now.
  5. Disconnect your watch with your iPhone (by shutting it down or bringing it to quarantine or turning off Bluetooth), and enable iOS app tweak. The two apps coexist.
  6. Connect them again. The watch app disappears again.
