The journey of Wear OS towards the YouTube Music App
The journey of Wear OS toward the YouTube Music App has many twists and turns. Wear OS Watch has only one native music streaming app which is Google Play Music. In 2020, Google announced it would close it down, leaving no choice for users but to head for YouTube Music App.
Surprisingly, the Music was not readily welcoming for them. The YouTube Music app wasn’t available on Wear OS Watch. This left the users with little to no choice but to listen to their favorite music. To make matters worse for the users of the Wear OS Watch, Google then preferred to create a YouTube Music App for Apple Watch leaving behind the Wear OS Watch.

Indeed, we can see that the changing dynamics in the technology have brought the YouTube Music to Wear OS Watch. Google didn’t launch the YouTube Music on Wear OS Watch until Samsung launched the Galaxy Watch 4 lineup last summer. After about a month, Google launched the Music app on Wear OS 2 Watches supported by Qualcomm Snapdragon 4100 chips.
Moreover, it only has limited access when offline. The most recent update allowing streaming of the YouTube Music App on Wear OS Watch closed all the loops and gave full-fledged access to the new world of music and thousands upon thousands of playlists.

We don’t yet have the complete information about the Pixel Watch. All we can say is that Google didn’t ignore the Wear OS and worked out everything according to a well-thought plan.

This has more innovative updates, such as access to the payment cards, connectivity to the Google Assistant, and Google Wallet.
