Does Apple Watch 6 support streaming Spotify music directly without an ‌iPhone‌ connection? Sorry, the answer is still no. But Spotify is now testing direct Apple Watch streaming for select users. However, there is still no news on storing a playlist locally for offline listening. - read more

Spotify officially released its Apple Watch app on Nov 13, 2018. With this new app, users can enjoy an improved experience with better control and the ability to seamlessly connect to your speakers or devices.

There has been a Spotify Apple Watch app available for the past few years, but the standalone streaming option is new. Spotify has been testing the feature for a few months, and prior to now, listening to Spotify required an iPhone even on Apple Watch models with standalone cellular connections. Spotify first rolled out its Apple Watch app in late 2018 with a promise that offline playback for music and podcasts along with direct cellular streaming would be coming in future updates, but.

Is it possible to arrangere the artists I have in my play lists alphabetically. Because of streaming music from Spotify pausing all the time, I have to play off line. The play list is getting extremely long, and it is difficult to find a particular artist. The music streaming organisation with the most successful income generating structure, Spotify, is still pretending it can't create a software solution for ordering playlists alphabetically!! Millions of users in the meantime are stuck with disorderly collections of playlists which cannot be. Playlists in Your Library To reorder your list of playlists in the menu on the left, just click and hold a playlist title to move it up or down. You can also organize your playlists into folders: Right-click a playlist in the menu on the left of the desktop app. Randomize playlist order spotify.

Spotify’s first Apple Watch version includes the ability to access and control your favorite Spotify music and podcasts from wrist, and control how music is played to compatible Spotify Connect devices. But one important feature is missing: you can't store Spotify music locally on your wrist for offline listening.

The lack of offline playback may disappoint you. It means you still can't go for a run with just Bluetooth headphones and leave iPhone at home. Spotify is promising that offline playback support is coming in the future, however, it's not achieved. Unfortunately, it's a similar story for Apple Watch LTE owners with a data contract who were hoping to stream Spotify music directly from their wrist for listening on a pair of connected Bluetooth headphones. Currently the ability to do this doesn't exist in the Spotify app and there's a good chance it never will, since Apple's API for watchOS 5 doesn't permit third-party apps to use direct cellular or Wi-Fi streaming.

Apple Watch users will now be able to play music on Spotify directly from Watch app without connecting to an iPhone, according to a report on Engadget. We can see the feature live on our Apple Watch Series 3, though the Spotify app on the watch does say it is still in beta.

The new feature ensures a lot more functionality for the Spotify app on Apple Watch as users can now rely on the WiFi or the cellular connectivity of the Watch to stream music or podcasts. It will likely see a broader rollout soon, so not everyone will see it given the beta status.

The company also confirmed the same in a statement to Engadget, saying that after an initial testing period they are rolling out streaming capabilities to the Apple Watch app.

Earlier the Spotify app on the Apple Watch app could be used to control music on the AirPods or the iPhone, but it also meant that the app was running on the iPhones and you needed your phone to be close by. Now if you choose the Apple Watch as an option, you don’t have to worry about the Spotify app on the iPhone. Users can now see their favourite playlists, most recent playlists all on the Apple Watch app itself.

How to use Spotify app to control music directly on Apple Watch

First make sure the Spotify app is installed on your Apple Watch. If not, go to the Watch app on your iPhone and scroll for the Spotify app for the Watch and hit install.

When you open the Spotify app on your Apple Watch, you will see an option saying you can now control the app straight from the wearable. Keep in mind that more and more users are seeing this feature, though it is still in beta. If you don’t see it immediately don’t worry, it might roll out in sometime for you.

If you see the option to control Spotify from the Apple Watch is live, just tap on the Let’s Go option on the notification. Now when you play music, you will see a Watch symbol which will control and play music from the device.

New App For Apple Watch

You will be able to listen to music from the Watch itself via your connected Bluetooth headphone or speakers. For example, if you have AirPods, the Watch will prompt you to play the music on them. If no speaker or headphones are connected, the Watch will ask you to connect a device to it, where Spotify can stream the music.

Let us know if you have tried out the feature on your Apple Watch.
