Finally: Spotify now has Android Wear functionality

Apps with proper Android Wear functionality are far and few between at the moment, but thankfully, Spotify has finally joined those ranks. Spotify now has Android Wear functionality after an update was pushed out today, and it brings many requested functions to your wrist worn wearables. Along with the standard music player controls like skip track and volume controls, you’ll also be able to swipe and browse through your playlists as well as radio stations that you have saved to Your Music.

There are some quirks however: single tracks don’t seem to be able to be selected, and the Spotify app can’t be started from the watch itself – you’ll need to start it from your phone first before you can start interacting with it on your smartwatch. A few oversights, but we’re hoping they’ll be addressed in a future update. If you’re interested in checking out the update, it is available from the Play Store now:
