You can arrange your meeting, check your grocery list, and even pay through the watch.
Of course, smartwatches, including Wear OS Watch, are the best option for some fitness enthusiasts. Most of all Wear OS watches can record steps, long runs or walks, and even heart rate. Not only that, but you can download or stream your favorite music right from your wrist, so you can stay motivated as you run through the last mile or complete the last set of workouts. And the supported music streaming services include YouTube Music, Spotify, and Pandora. And today we will show you two different methods on how to play YouTube Music on a Wear OS Smartwatch.
