YouTube Music is Google’s answer to take on Spotify and Apple Music. It lets you hear millions of songs, albums, playlists, artist radios, and much more on your device. You can use this service for free with regular advertisements, or you can purchase Music premium ($9.99/month) to remove those ads. Users with YouTube Premium ($11.99/month) can also stream YouTube Music without any ads. When it comes to compatibility, YouTube Music supports Android mobiles/tablets, iPhone/iPad, Chromecast, and Smart TVs. You can also access this service using browsers on a PC.

How to Use YouTube Music on Apple Watch
It starts with two menus: Now playing and Library. Under the Library, you will have options to choose last played, downloads, playlists, albums, songs, artists, and subscription details. The Now playing section displays the usual functions like play/pause, forward/backward, cast icon, and an option to give thumbs up for your song. The watchOS version of YouTube Music lacks the support for offline streaming.
When using the YouTube Music app on your Apple Watch, you will get warning notifications like “Communication Failed.” This is a common issue in the non-cellular Apple Watch. If you get any warning pop-ups, restart the app. If you aren’t comfortable with the features of YouTube Music, you can download and use the Spotify app to hear songs right from the wrist. Spotify also offers a full-fledged app for Apple Watch.
