Square icon on Mail notifications instead of circular? (self.applewatch)

I'm pretty sure this has happened to me several times over the years, but it hasn't happened for a while so I can't remember the fix.

But for some reason, the notifications for Mail on my Apple Watch are square instead of circular. As you know, circular notifications are interactive and can be replied to, actioned, etc. whereas square ones are literally notifications and you can't do anything with them.

Any ideas how to fix?

I did try that amount several other things but it didn’t make a difference.

I eventually fixed this by simply opening the Mail app on the Watch. Something as simple as that. Wonder whether by doing so I just triggered something. Who knows.
