Bonne app de musique pour votre montre

Cette application permet d’enregistrer sur votre montre des musiques déjà enregistrées sur votre iPhone (local ou Cloud). Autrement dit, si vous « téléchargez » des MP3 via YouTube, c’est ce qu’il vous faut pour libérer de l’espace sur votre IPhone.

Les commandes sur la montre sont assez intuitives et faciles à manipuler malgré la petite taille de l’écran. Le temps de transfert sur la montre peut être un peu long si vous uploadez trop de morceaux a la fois. Pensez juste à garder votre montre au poignet tout au long du processus, car si elle tombe en veille ou se verrouille pendant le transfert, il faudra tout recommencer…

Le seul bémol et ce n’était pas clair pour moi avant d’obtenir cette app, c’est que vous ne pouvez pas écouter la musique sur votre IPhone (juste sur votre montre). La seule chose que vous pouvez faire à partir de votre iPhone, c’est uploader la musique sur votre montre. Si par exemple vous recherchez une app qui synchronise localement votre musique sur votre IPhone et votre Apple Watch tout en vous permettant de permuter l’écoute sur l’un ou l’autre, alors cette app n’est pas faite pour vous.

Not quite there

The app works well until it doesn’t and is a bit incoherent. It perpetually says transferring even for tracks transferred. Some tracks just won’t transfer for no given reason or error. Please make a watch version that doesn’t require iPhone and can reliably transfer from a local network drive that requires authentication. The phone app is the problem and Apple doesn’t allow installation of the Player app by family members to the watch directly.

Parfait

Rien à redire, ça fonctionne bien.

Very good app

This fills an infuriatingly bad workflow by Apple for simply listening to content offline on the Apple Watch. Works well for me, transfer isn’t super fast but playback is including over AirPods.

Awesome. It’s VLC for Apple Watch! Buy it! Buy now!

It’s basically VLC for Apple Watch it is absolutely incredible.

Sorting for Artists, Album, playlist and everything!

This app is one of the only apps for watch that has local music and video support better then Apple Music and TV and album sorting and sequential listing based on “file name” rather than just. “Track title”.

It even syncs with Apple Music or not it’s your choice !

This developer also listens to user feedback.

Also this developer makes a great epic epub app for watch too!

I would use this instead apples default junk due to the VLC nature of the app.

Get this app it’s the best music video player on watchOS.
