Family Setup - how to reinstall sleep? (alien.top)

Got two SEs to track my kids while they play around the neighborhood and my spouse was setting them up but one failed to finish installing the default apps.

When bedtime rolled around we successfully setup a sleep schedule on one but it wasn’t completed downloading yet on the one that was having trouble installing its default apps. My spouse deleted it since it was stuck and went to reinstall from the on-watch App Store; unfortunately this method of downloading Sleep doesn’t work with family setup because it says iPhone required.

Do I need to reset the device to get the default Sleep app back (and for the other defaults to finish installing?)

In Family Setup, The following features and apps are not available: Medications, respiratory rate, irregular heart rhythm notifications, ECG, AFib History, Cycle Tracking, Sleep, Wrist Temperature, Blood Oxygen, Walking Steadiness, Audiobooks, Remote, News, Shortcuts, and the double tap gesture.

Since sleep tracking isn’t supported, you’ll probably have to reset it to get the sleep app to show up.
