I've praised Apple's connected ecosystem, but I'll give it another one. What I like is that when you want to play some music, you don't need to turn on Spotify on your iPhone and Apple Watch separately. Once the app is installed on both devices, you can play any song or podcast on your iPhone, and the "Play" screen will appear on your watch.

Here is how to control playback and manage your Spotify library from Apple Watch:

• Click the play/stop/recover button in the middle
• Click the heart icon to add the song you are playing to your favorite song
• Click the connection icon in the lower right corner to select where you want to play the audio (if you want to know "How to play Spotify with my Apple Watch and my AirPods?" - Spotify Connect is the answer)
• Swipe left to view your Spotify library and download content
• Swipe right to view the current album/playlist
• Rotate the digital crown to change the volume.

The ultimate question is: If you leave your iPhone at home, can you use Spotify on your Apple Watch? Fortunately, it's OK! But there are some important prerequisites.

If you have downloaded your playlist/podcast to your watch, you can enjoy listening to Spotify without bringing your iPhone.

Can you play Spotify on your Apple Watch without a phone without an internet connection? The answer is yes, provided that you have downloaded your music before.

Here is how to create your Spotify Apple Watch offline settings:

1. Make sure you have a valid Spotify Premium account (free account users cannot use the download feature).
2. Check your internet connection – you need it to run the download process.
3. Update the Spotify application if necessary.

Note that you can only download playlists - you cannot download individual songs. So put up to 100 songs in one playlist and download them to your Apple Watch.

all the best? Now let's download some Spotify music to the Apple Watch:

1. Open your Spotify app on your iPhone.
2. Find the playlist you want to download and click the three dots next to it.
