Even when I play via bluetooth from the phone it will not go to the watch speaker just the phone itself.I agree, it makes zero sense. I complained to Samsung about the Spotify functionality or lack thereof. They referred me to Spotify. The only thing preventing this from working is the garbage watch app that Spotify severely neglects.
Others will tell you just to play from your phone since you're carrying it anyway if connected via bluetooth. That's not a satisfactory answer to me.
Someone explain why I have to use wifi to listen to spotify on my watch but my $10 U8 watch can listen to spotify perfectly via bluetooth perfectly fine?
I have that bug it's annoying.You can listen to spotify offline. Save playlist to your watch. Put it in Offline mode. Listen.
Be careful. There is a bug that makes music play automatically when you get a phone call.
