Family sharing watch apps question.

I have an app on my phone and watch called “interval pro”, it is an interval timer app. I want my son to have the app on his watch. We have family sharing for his watch, he does not have a cell phone. How to I get it on his watch? Is there a good resource to help me understand how apps on family sharing for the Apple Watch works?

You can see the 'Availability of features and apps' section in:

Set up an Apple Watch for a family member - Apple Support

but int may not be very helpful to you. Apple tends to discuss only Apple apps and not third-party apps. Note that some Apple Watch features depend on having a companion iPhone, and aren't available on an Apple Watch that you pair using Family Setup.
