Download Spotify content to Samsung smartwatches with their latest update running Wear OS 2.0 or higher on devices such as the new Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Watch4 Classic. In the coming weeks, Spotify users will be able to play their favourite playlists, albums, and podcasts with smartwatches that run Wear OS. By having Spotify on your wrist, you can run, dance, shop, cook, and socialize and control your music and podcasts at the same time. You will also have the ability to download all of your favourite music and podcasts to your smartwatch.
With this new feature, Premium users will be able to download their favourite albums, playlists, and podcasts to listen offline. Free users will be able to stream their tunes in Shuffle Mode using a WiFi or cellular connection, as well as download any of their favourite podcasts directly to the watch.
How to download content to your Samsung smartwatch
- From your watch, find the music and podcasts you want to download on your watch. Tap ‘Download to watch’.
- To check on the progress, head over to the Downloads section on your watch.
- Once the selected playlists, albums, or podcasts in your library are downloaded, you’ll see a little green arrow next to their names.
- Connect your headphones and start listening, no matter where you are!
There is also a completely new Spotify app to make the experience for smartwatches running Wear OS better than ever. Beyond seamlessly playing, pausing, and skipping tracks or podcast episodes, you can also control playback for everything from wireless speakers to TVs to gaming consoles using Spotify Connect directly from your wrist.
Spotify will be rolling out offline Wear OS functionality in the next few weeks for smartwatches from Fossil, Mobvoi, and Suunto. Go to Google Play to download the app or update your watch to the latest version. Once the new features are rolled out, they will be automatically available.
