Spotify has arrived on the Apple Watch.
Spotify today updated its iOS app to version 8.4.79, and with the update came an Apple Watch app. With this app, you can play and pause music, skip back and forth between tracks, shuffle, heart songs, control volume, and see how much time is left in a track. You can also control volume with the Apple Watch's Digital Crown and send music to a speaker using Spotify Connect, and you can see your recently played music if you want to hear a specific playlist, artist, or album again.
Spotify says that it's got more features coming to its Apple Watch app, too. These include offline playback, but there's no word on when that particular feature might arrive.
The Apple Watch doesn't get as much love from app developers as it used to, so it's nice to see Spotify launch an app for Apple's smartwatch. We imagine that a lot of Spotify users would love to have offline playback right out of the gate, so it's kind of a bummer to see that right now the Spotify app is focused mostly on music controls, but at least Spotify has acknowledged that offline playback is coming.
