If you want to know how you can enjoy offline Spotify playback on your Apple Watch, then these are the steps you need to follow.
Previously gated away behind specific Samsung and Garmin devices, the ability to listen to your favourite Spotify playlists on the go has finally made its way to the Apple Watch.
This means that if you fancy listening to some tunes during an outdoor run then you no longer have to bring your iPhone with you to do so.
It should go without saying that in order to access the feature, you need to have an active Spotify Premium account – if you have a Spotify Free account then the following steps will not work. If this isn’t an issue, then all you need to do is follow these steps exactly and you’ll be enjoying some quality tracks in no time.
