WhatsApp QR Code not appearing on Galaxy Watch 4/5

However, Samsung doesn’t give any native built-in option to get this job done. So you’ll have to take the help of ADB Commands, as explained below.
Do note that this will affect the entire UI/UX of the watch- the menus, app drawer, and other UI elements will also have a smaller size. So after decreasing the density and scanning the QR code, you could reset the density to its default value [this has also been explained in the above-linked guide].
