I've tried uninstalling the app but all apps are still ready to install.

Thanks.

I've tried uninstalling the app but all apps are still ready to install.

As ready as any other app you haven't tried. It's not taking up any Connect IQ slots or storage capacity on your watch. However, what you've previously installed will remain on record and visible; they will remain listed even if you clear all user data on your watch. Fortunately, any niggles arising from that are only aesthetic and/or psychological, and have no practical or operational impact.

If you want to start afresh with no record, then I suppose that creating a new Garmin Connect account (and effectively abandoning all history of your workout and 24x7 activity data) and clearing all user data on your watch (or resetting it to factory defaults) will do the trick. It's a tad too drastic for my liking, but if hiding or just not seeing those Connect IQ apps you've uninstalled is important enough to you, by all means take the leap.
