The answer is yes. Tidal has announced its app is now available on a variety of wearable devices including the Apple Watch. Now the Tidal app on your Apple Watch makes it possible for users to stream music directly to Apple’s wearable or download it for listening offline. But you should know that only the subscribers of Tidal can stream Tidal Music directly on the watch. You should pay $9.99 a month to get a HiFi subscription or cost $19.99 per month to subscribe to a HiFi Plus account.

So if you unsubscribe to this service and the subscription ends, how can we play Tidal Music on the Apple Watch?
