< p> WatchOS 9 update breaks Spotify playback on Apple Watch The company claims that the new version of the system does not allow listening to music without downloading to the device if the watch is not connected to a smartphone.</p>
<p>It is reported that within a minute after turning on the track, the sound disappears, but the playback indicator continues to move. Restarting or updating the application does not improve the situation.</p>
<p>The problem occurs both when connected to Wi-Fi and when using LTE. Only streaming from the watch stops working: you can still turn on tracks from the device’s memory or control playback from your smartphone.</p>
<p>If you regularly stream Spotify from your watch, if possible, do not update to watchOS 9. Apple already has released a beta version of watchOS 9.1 to developers, and there are reports that the application works correctly in this version.</p>
