There is no Rivian watch app today. The only app is WaaK which is a 3rd party app.

it's insulting that a 3rd party can do it and Rivian won't.
The waak app Works great for my on G1 with watch ultra, As a matter of fact...it works batter than my iPhone which most of the time I need to wake up the screen for the car to recognize the phone key

The Rivian app is compatible with Shortcuts. You can create a "shortcut app" which then goes to your watch. You can't drive the vehicle with it but you can do any of the app functions - lock unlock, frunk etc.

when it works it’s handy, like getting the frunk or liftgate open when your hands are full. Unfortunately about half the time my watch tries and then says it can’t do it. No idea why.

Not a very good comparison...for the shortcut to work, the watch needs to be somewhat close to the phone about 25-30ft the most.
With that app your phone could be off and be forgotten in India and the watch key will still work.
