Galaxy Watch 4 owners only, please.<\/p>\n
Are you one of the fortunate folks to have already received your Samsung Galaxy Watch 4<\/a> or Watch 4 Classic? Great news then, as YouTube Music is now available<\/a> on Wear OS Powered by Samsung \u2014 that’s the specific version of Wear OS 3 that runs on the Galaxy Watch 4 series \u2014 marking the first time YouTube Music has been available on a smartwatch that isn’t made by Apple.<\/p>\n Yes, you read that right. For almost the past year now, the only YouTube Music smartwatch app has been available on the Apple Watch \u2014 an unfortunate trend among the latest and greatest Google apps \u2014 and now is only available on the latest Samsung smartwatches. We’ve reached out to Google to find out if it plans to grace other Wear OS watch owners with its popular music service and will update this article with more information.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n At the moment, the YouTube Music app is somewhat limited in scope. It’s mainly designed for offline playback, as the only way to play music appears once you’ve selected and downloaded your preferred songs or playlists. Furthermore, while you can queue downloads of music at any time \u2014 or rely on YouTube Music’s somewhat questionable Smart Downloads feature \u2014 your Galaxy Watch 4 will only actually download music when it’s on the charger. There’s no support for streaming music at this time, which is likely done to help preserve precious battery life.<\/p>\n The interface itself is simple enough, giving users the ability to browse or search their music library, queue songs up for download, manage Smart Downloads storage, and, of course, control music playback. The goal here is clearly for users to download music ahead of a scheduled time away from their phone, such as exercising or adventuring outdoors, and pair the best wireless eabuds<\/a> with their watch in order to listen to music. Here’s hoping both the scope of the app and the rollout to more watches don’t take as long as it took to get to this point.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From $250 at Best Buy (Galaxy Watch 4)<\/a> Wear OS at its best<\/p>\n The Galaxy Watch 4 is the first smartwatch to run the new Wear OS powered by Samsung. Thanks to its powerful new chip, Samsung’s new wearable can take Wear OS to the next level with new seamless integration and better app experiences.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Galaxy Watch 4 owners only, please.<\/p>\n What you need to know<\/p>\n YouTube Music is now available on the Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic.
