Wear App Manager
IMPORTANT: uninstalling apps directly from your Wear device is only supported on Android Wear 2.0 (currently in developer preview and not available for most watches). On Android Wear 1, the system requires that all app un/installation happens through your linked phone (or tablet). When your watch gets Wear 2, this feature will become available for you automatically
- but not until then! Thanks for your understanding.
ALSO: it's not possible to uninstall system apps from the watch, by any means (including this app).

WAM was the first app manager for Wear and is still the best! But don't just take our word for it:
"Some of the apps on your phone have Wear modules, but which ones? And what the heck do they do? Wear App Manager lists them all in one handy place."
- Android Police
"Wear App Manager takes the guesswork out of the equation"
- re/code
"It’s boring having to scroll through hundred of other apps from the settings menu. Enter Wear App Manager, a slick and easy way to see what’s taking up what on your wearable"
- Android Headlines
"It’s a potentially useful tool and even more so if you’re a new Android Wear owner."
- Android Authority
In addition to bringing all your Wear apps together in one place, this version includes the following: ▶ Notifications (on your watch, handheld, or both) when Wear apps are installed, updated, or uninstalled ▶ Permissions each app is actually using on your wearable ▶ Storage space available on-device, and how much each app is using
- in more detail than that shown by the Android Wear app. ▶ Direct links to uninstall the app, or open its listing on Google Play ▶ Uninstall multiple apps at once ▶ Share app details or lists with friends ▶ Launch apps (on watch or handheld) easily ▶ Shows apps installed only on watch (in development, or sideloaded), and those whose watch components are missing ▶ Sort app list by name, size, update or install date ▶ Full support for multiple wearable devices linked to your phone ▶ Lots of geeky internal details about each app, like version codes and install dates. Handy for devs!

So far it looks really handy, but I can't seem to uninstall watchfaces that I've uninstalled from my phone before. It would be great if I could uninstall apps on a per device basis as well. Also, if it would have sideloading capabilities (for installing APKs downloaded from other sources and stored on the phone).
It prompts to install on the watch but the watch wants me to pay again but even if you do click pay you get an error and it doesn't install. To add to that you can't get a refund as the app isn't compliant with Google pay policy. Avoid it, it's a rip off. No problem getting a refund on other wear os apps this is the only one I have had this issue with and there are a few other reviews reporting the same issue with this app.
No Updates, like how i will be able to load new watch faces with this app? Really not a fan of Facer after installing a lot of problem started appearing like battery backup issue and not Charging issue. I purchased this app after coming across a tutorial which tells about installing any watch faces through this app. Oke then, may i know what all i can do with this app?
This company does not give refunds even though they've got a button for it. this was supposed to be an app that allowed me to shut down applications that were running on my SmartWatch all it does is allow me to uninstall applications that are on my SmartWatch which I can do in the Google play Store. This is a rip off
Google playstore does take a while to make your purchase available on the watch. Took about a half day. I was hoping I could find a list of running apps so I could kill them. But haven't found it yet 😉
I have to pay here for the App and on the watch I have to pay again? I never did a refund for 0,99€ but this should be mentioned somewhere. Beside that the app didn't worked and keeped Crashing on a 2018 device.
I have bought it on my phone. Now I am trying to install it on watch, it is asking me to pay again. Update: Yes, it is working now. Very helpful app to uninstall apps of your watch. Thank you.
Can't get it to work. Unable to install on to TW Pro running latest Wear O/S. Pixel 3XL on Android 10. Got a refund, shame because it looks great.
Glorious. This app has functionality that SHOULD be part of the official Google Wear OS app. It is VITAL for any Wear OS user. Thank you to the devrloper(s) for making this. It's worth every penny
Great app! Just the kind of functionality you expect the actual wear os app should have, worth more than 5 stars, please keep improving and amazing us with new features :)
Brilliant app! Does exactly what it claims to, making a lot of watch tasks simpler!
The app is very helpful to be able to see what version of an app is on your watch,and when it last updated.
Works great with Sony SmartWatch 3. Lots of useful information as well, thanks.
Excellent app. It helped me remove apps from my smartwatch that I couldn't remove ..thx
One of the best apps one can fine, easy and efficient, thanks developers
Not working on my watch at least. Had to return the app..
Why do I have to pay for the app on the phone and also for the app on the watch?
I truly enjoy this app. Nothing to dislike about this experience.
can not refund in just less than 1 hour after i installed? c'mon..
A must have for Wear OS.
I left a bad review when the app stopped working after AW 2.0 came out. All it took was a reinstall and it works great. Lets me see exactly what's installed on my wearable, and remove apps all in one place. I like it a lot, seems indispensable for managing my watch.
Great app! I love managing what's on my watch using the big screen of my PadFone rather than the small round display on my ZenWatch. The only bug I came across so far is that the app will claim "Not found on wearable" for pretty much every app that absolutely IS on my wearable.
This app needs updating to work properly with latest versions of wear os. Currently mis-reporting apps being installed or uninstalled, says apps are installed on Watch even though been uninstalled.
Really good for managing watch faces that sit on the watch and either don't install or uninstall appropriately.
App paid, reset phone & watch and now ask for other payment!!! fix it!
Perfect!!! Thanks!!!
Well this app is pretty much useless. Duplicates uninstall features built in your app drawer. Guess it's good for noobs.. A waste of money for me...
Almost completely useless. During uninstall of wear apps, clearing app data is not even an option. This way your uninstaller app leaves a lot of junk on the Android Wear watch!
Edit: I had previously complained that I had been charged multiple times for this app. Wrong. Works perfectly and I was only charged once. As OP correctly explained, I had encountered a Google bug
