YouTube Music comes to smartwatches with Wear OS 2!

YouTube Music is no longer exclusive to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic which is undoubtedly good news for everyone who has a smartphone with Wear OS. I remember that until now this app had only been released for equipment with Wear 4100 and Wear 4100+. Now that has just changed!

Until now smartwatches with Wear OS were entitled to Google Play Music. However this service was discontinued in August. Then Google announced that YouTube Music would be available for the Wear OS but unfortunately it was only for the Galaxy Watch 4. Now there is a new version that runs in other versions as mentioned on the website Notebookcheck.

YouTube Music now supports API 28, which is required to run on Wear OS 2.

However and despite this good news this is not the best app ever. This is because there are still many new features in various areas. For example it is not possible to stream music. We are also unable to view the contents of a Playlist or an album. It may be that the release of this version and future updates will bring more news.

This can be a way to give more strength to YouTube Music, which has been a little below expectations.

For example, theusers who migrated from Google Play Music to YouTube Music started by complaining that they couldn’t listen to their own library as a subscription was required.

Of course Google ended up solving this with a free plan, but still the problems remain .

One of the more recent issues is related to in-car experiences when using YouTube Music on Android Auto. Apparently in the music recommendation engine.

That said, users are getting the suggestion to always listen to the same artist. This even when we didn’t like any of the previous songs. Besides, if we want to skip the songs of some singers, we’ll take them back with them. Have you seen if the application jams in the songs of the late Zé Cabra or similar?

The only way to solve the problem is to use the dislike button. So we’re not going to see this particular artist again. Of course this is not a convenient solution. It’s just that we can like one or two songs from a person and as such we don’t want to put a dislike. It’s just that otherwise we wouldn’t see him again.
