Spotify revamps Apple Watch app with direct downloads feature and more
Leading music streaming platform Spotify has started rolling out its new Apple Watch application, with larger controls and swipe gestures. The new update allows users to easily browse and choose their favourite music and podcasts in ‘Your Library’, the company said in a blogpost.
Spotify Apple Watch app gets a makeover
The new Spotify update allows users to quickly download music for offline listening from the watch itself. Earlier, you could download music to your Apple Watch but still needed to pull out your iPhone to listen to the music. However, the new update allows users to listen to the downloaded audio content without reaching out to their iPhone.
Additionally, users can now swipe to like a song from the list view, a format that is already available in the Spotify iOS app.
It offers a “new sleek design with larger artwork, animations”, and useful additions like the ability to swipe to like a song.

“It is also super easy to spot new episodes marked with a blue dot, so you will never miss fresh episodes from your favourite creators,” the company said.
The music streaming platform mentioned that the users have to make sure to update the application to the latest version.
Spotify has brought its ‘Tap’ shortcut to Meta’s Ray-Ban Stories sunglasses. By pressing and holding on the side of the glasses, users can instantly start playing music on their phones. As for podcasts, users will be able to see the listening progress and pick right where left off. Earlier, it used to restart the entire podcast whenever you left it in between.
The platform can also be used in the ambient mode on Amazon’s ‘Fire TV Omni QLED’ televisions, to let subscribers explore recommendations or “flick through albums, songs, and playlists using the remote control”, the company said.
