Spotify has started rolling out support for standalone streaming through Spotify on the Apple Watch. The new feature will allow Apple Watch users to listen to music or podcasts from Spotify over their Apple Watch without having to have an iPhone nearby. While the Spotify app for Apple Watch has been there for the past few years, but the standalone streaming option has been added now. According to reports, the company has been testing the new feature since past few months and before this, listening to Spotify required an ‌iPhone‌ even on cellular Apple Watch models.

Prior to this update, listening to Spotify required users to have an iPhone around. The feature is still in its beta stage and a wide rollout is expected any time in the coming days. Spotify has already initiated the rollout for Apple Watch users. The change was first reported by a German website Macerkopf.de and was later confirmed by TechCrunch. 'We're focused on developing experiences that enable users to listen to Spotify wherever and whenever they want - regardless of the device or platform. After an initial testing period, we are now rolling out streaming capabilities for Spotify on the Apple Watch,' a Spotify spokesperson was quoted by TechCrunch as saying.

The Apple Watch is one of the most popular smartwatches around, and Apple has even been diversifying the lineup with an “affordable” version, the Apple Watch SE. However, a feature that has been missing all this time has been direct streaming support on the Spotify app on Watch OS—without needing to have a paired iPhone nearby.

Spotify had, last month also brought in the ability to play podcasts via Google Assistant, allowing users to listen to Spotify podcasts on Google Assistant-enabled smart speakers and smart display like the new Nest Audio, Nest Mini, and the Nest Hub Max.

The first Apple Watch launched back in in 2015, but it wasn’t until November 2018 that a Spotify app made its way to the popular smartwatch. And even then, it sucked. It was a glorified remote. As the Apple Watch's functionality grows, the need to take your bulky smartphone with you everywhere decreases. And one key feature has finally arrived that we've all been waiting for – the ability to stream your Spotify app directly through your watch.

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.

The new functionality means that even if the iPhone is another room or a different part of the house, you will be able to control your music straight from the Watch as long as it has internet connectivity.

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.

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.
