The news comes to watches with the latest update for Wear OS, both in its version 3.0 (which is available in the Samsung Galaxy Watch4) and in those devices with lower versions. We have checked it on both systems and from both of them we were able to download the Spotify lists to the clock.

Downloading songs comes to Android, just as Spotify itself had anticipated: it is now available to everyone. With this novelty, it is possible to download any saved playlist to the smart watch; as long as you enjoy Spotify Premium. You have to install the application on both the mobile and the smartwatch and have both updated.

  • Once you are at the beginning (where the playback controls) scroll to the screen on the right, the one that offers access to your user’s playlists.
  • Choose the list you want to download and enter it, always from the clock.
  • You will see that under the play icon the message of “Download on Watch“. Click there to start the download.
  • The process can take longer if the playlist is very long, you must take that into account.
  • In the event that Spotify refuses to download the charts, make sure the watch is connected to a WiFi network. After, disconnect the phone’s Bluetooth to force the smartwatch to download over said WiFi.

To listen to the songs you need to connect a Bluetooth headset to your smartwatch: you will be able to play what is saved on your Spotify without an Internet connection and without the need to carry the phone (the speaker on the clock does not work). The quality of the downloaded music should match the settings you have in the Spotify app for your phone.
