Did you find a solution to this? I also don't want to track anything except for sales on ads. It's a weird choice from Apple that they don't show this in App Store Connect but instead make us rely on the potentially unsafe partners they have

Now this should work. "color" is the full color PNG, "alpha" is a transparent PNG. It's blurry on the X-Large watch face but because the watch face requests the wrong resolution. You can do a 2x on the scale however that will break the other complications.
Maybe there is a way to know that the Watch requests the icon for the X-Large watch face but I stopped caring, it's stupid to spend so much time on something that simple, not gonna touch this again

I probably found a solution. Surprise surprise it's another thing not at all documented by Apple. Will update you tomorrow
I have probably found a solution now; the watch faces are buggy asf and sometimes don't update unless you swipe back and forth, keep adding and removing the complication, it may work then. Use @Environment(\.widgetRenderingMode) var widgetRenderingMode (which may show the wrong value for your watch face but after a lot of resetting it finally produces values one can work with)
Did you find a solution to this?
The first people have reported this in 2015, I have reported it myself in 2017. They kept telling me "but it works fine on our devices". It's absolutely astonishing how good Apple is at refusing to acknowledge this issue.
Every update breaks the app on user's devices and it takes days of restarting Mac, resetting Watch, switching cables, switching wifis, ... to get a debug session working in Xcode. And as soon as you disconnect the devices the same thing starts all over.
Apple doesn't want you to make watch apps. That's the only reasonable explanation. I can't wait to finally have enough money to open up my Alpaca farm and be done with this stupidity.
