The Apple Watch turns three on April 10, the day the first model of the revolutionary product of the Big Apple was marketed. Since then, thousands of apps compatible with the watch have been appearing on the App Store, but many others have been left behind and have not offered compatibility. Why? Good question.
One of those applications is Spotify, one of the best streaming music services of the moment. During these three years we have not received a single news about its integration in watchOS, nor did we expect it. Until the recent appearance of a report in which they comment that the Spotify app for watchOS could see the light at WWDC 2018.
Official Spotify app for watchOS: a good move
With various music streaming services taking over, Spotify could have made the decision to adapt your platform to watchOS. It would be a strategy to try to take advantage of the autonomy of the Apple Watch with the new versions of watchOS, in addition to being able to support the device, increasing the number of users who would download the app if it were sufficient incentive.
The information comes from a anonymous and unverified confidant, so the data is neither true nor verifiable, or at least for the moment. The app is expected to be officially released with the launch of the new version of watchOS during WWDC this summer. It would be surprising if Apple used a competitor's design to promocionar your services during a keynote that millions of people see, but it could be an option.
In addition, it is believed that behind this initiative would not only be Spotify itself, but that Apple could present a new development kit called StreamKit, with which it would help developers to offer content online. In addition, it would help creators to take advantage of the independence that Apple wants to give the Apple Watch with watchOS 5.
The idea that they are thinking of creating an app for Apple's watch is not at all crazy thinking that a few months ago Spotify hired Andrew Chang, an app designer, which was made popular by the launch of a proposal showing a possible Spotify design on an Apple Watch.
