Even the Mac has a WhatsApp app! 😆Damn finally. Spotify not supporting downloads on the watch is as incomprehensible as whatsapp not providing an iPad app.

Why would a non Apple user go with Apple Music. I wouldn’t. The only reason I use Apple Music is it’s easier with the ecosystem. Take that away and it’s no better than any other servicesWell Apple Music has always been better than Spotify overall solely due to the Music Cloud Library feature. The issue was that Spotify was on a lot more devices and had better music finding algorithms, and still has better playlists.
The final nail in the coffin for Spotify [from my perspective anyway] would be Apple Music coming to more platforms like Xbox Series X and PS5. The Spotify integration with PS5 is pretty deep so I have a feeling it might only come to Xbox Series X, especially with the Dolby Atmos support being on both Apple Music and Xbox Series X.
But back on topic. I wish Spotify had full watch support a long time ago. It was one of the things I missed back when I had Spotify Premium.
It’s got airplay 2 support on iOS. I believe it’s just macOS that doesn’t have support.I’m glad they’ve finally added this basic feature. A bit on the crappy side though with just 96kb… but during a workout it should be fine I guess.
All we now need is HomePod support, AirPlay 2 support, lyrics and a useful CarPlay app.

Too late for whom? Look how many paid subscribers Spotify have, to Apple's. Spotify dominates the whole steaming market..just say'n 🙂A little too late into the game?
For the better library and organization for albums. But it has so many shortcomings and irritations especially on Mac OS I dumped it for Spotify.Why would a non Apple user go with Apple Music.

they are ahead of the market, but they’ve been making the absolute most stupid decisions in the last few years. they’re actually so out of touch with the community and it’s hilarious. how many years were their users asking for this? they don’t give a crap. it’s clear they only put out this feature just to compete and keep their subscribers. look at how many complaints there are about their horrendous user interface. i was a diehard spotify fan but now i’m just about to make the switch to apple music instead.Too late for whom?

Indeed, did the same due to lack of watch support. But after some months with Apple Music it was very clear that music discovery is so much better on Spotify so I went back. So this is really good news.A shame. Switched to Apple Music a few month back, then got the HomePod and today the Apple TV. I don’t think I’ll be returning to Spotify anytime soon. If they had introduced Watch support earlier things would probably look very different now.
Better library. Maybe for some eclectic recording. Album Organization is crap on AM. So many artists have 3 names in Apple MusicFor the better library and organization for albums. But it has so many shortcomings and irritations especially on Mac OS I dumped it for Spotify.
I agree, Spotify was ridiculously slow with this. But music discovery somehow doesn’t work for me on Apple Music, it’s just ”more of the same”. Spotify does it so much better, at least in my case. So since this in the end is about music, not gadgets, I went back…they are ahead of the market, but they’ve been making the absolute most stupid decisions in the last few years. they’re actually so out of touch with the community and it’s hilarious. how many years were their users asking for this? they don’t give a crap. it’s clear they only put out this feature just to compete. look at how many complaints there are about their horrendous user interface. i was a diehard spotify fan but now i’m just about to make the switch to apple music instead.
It does already, no? At least multi-roomAirPlay 2 support,
Agreed. As far as music discovery is concerned, Spotify is enormously superior than Apple Music.I agree, Spotify was ridiculously slow with this.

I don't see anything either. I updated everything and rebooted both my iPhone and Watch. Nothing shows. Go figure.Has anyone tried this yet? I don't see the "Download to Apple Watch" setting.
I've used all the major services and my opinion is it is better than the other services in many ways, though worse in some. And "Why would a non Apple user go with Apple Music" is the most foolish question I've heard all day. It's on Android and many Android users use it.Why would a non Apple user go with Apple Music.
