I have tried using WKInterfaceLabel to code it out, I couldn't find a way to add it into the interface. In iOS, it is addsubview, how can I do this in WatchKit? – Ngo Yen Sern May 25 '15 at 09:45

You can't programmatically create a view in WatchKit you must scope it out entirely in storyboard.
EDIT:
The way this works is that views are preloaded on the watch at the time the app is installed. The data if then gathered by an extension that is running on your phone. Once the phone has the relevant data it assignes the data to the view that is already on the watch. There is no mechanism to transfer UI components from the extension to the watch.
Thanks @NgoYenSern for the comments.

1@NgoYenSern the reason is because the UI is loaded into the watch and the code runs on an extension on your phone, so your phone can't send UI updates to the watch. – Schemetrical May 25 '15 at 10:08

No problem. It might make sens to edit the question to make it more board so more people can see it. Maybe something like "programmatically add WKInterfaceLabel to Apple Watch" – Mika May 25 '15 at 11:01
