How to Control Music on Your WearOS Watch

Here’s how to control your music with your WearOS watch.

Controlling Music on Your Phone

When you're playing music on your phone, a media notification will automatically appear on your watch. You can use this notification to:

  • Play and pause your music
  • Skip to the next or previous track
  • Adjust the volume

Listening to Music Directly from Your Watch

You can also listen to music directly from your watch, without your phone nearby.

  • Spotify: With a Premium subscription, you can download playlists and podcasts to your watch for offline listening.
  • YouTube Music: You can download your favorite tracks and playlists to your watch for phone-free listening.

To listen to music from your watch, you'll need to pair a set of Bluetooth headphones with your watch.
