With the Spotify for Apple Watch app, you don’t need your iPhone to control Spotify. Skip songs, shuffle songs, stream music, download content, and control music playback, all right from your wrist.

Getting Spotify for Apple Watch is easy. You only need a few things:

Once you have these things, the Spotify for Apple Watch app will automatically install on your Watch (remember, Apple Watch apps are added to the Watch after they're installed on the paired iPhone). If not, try restarting your iPhone and it should show up on your Watch.

Spotify is continually improving its Apple Watch integration. Originally, the Apple Watch served as a sort of remote satellite for Spotify on your iPhone. You could play recently played playlists and jump between playlists, but you couldn’t browse your library from your wrist, and you needed your iPhone to stream music or podcasts.
