Once it seems that Google has found the definitive name of your music streaming serviceYouTube Music, it seems that the search giant has begun to add some of the functions that the rest of the music streaming services have offered on the Apple Watch for a long time.
The latest update of the YouTube app for iOS, includes a companion app for Apple Watch, an application that allows us to manage the reproduction of the application, consult the library ... it is a remote control of the application installed on the iPhone, in short.
The YouTube Music app for the Apple Watch includes a complication that can be added to watch faces, although it is not compatible with all. It also includes a shortcut that allows users to send currently playing content directly to a smart speaker. At the moment, it does not allow us to enjoy music without having to download it previously in the models with an LTE connection.
To be able to use this version for the Apple Watch, our device must be managed by watchOS 6 onwards, so it is only compatible from Apple Watch Series 6. One of the problems we face with this application, if we are not subscribers of the service, is that the application is worth absolutely nothing.
YouTube Music allows us to play any song available in its extensive catalog in addition to showing us the video, but it only allows us to do so with the screen off if we pay the subscription. If not, we must always have the screen of our terminal on.
It is striking that, once again, Google has launched the version for smartwatches of one of its applications, in this case YouTube Music, for Apple Watch before WearOS, an application that will still take a few months to reach the Android ecosystem.
good morning:
Can you tell me if this application has support with siri, that is, I can request songs through the clock with the youtube music app, as happens with spotifY?
all the best
