Warning!! You’ll probably get phished if you use this!
garbage, does not work, hasn’t been updated in 5 years. probably a phishing/security breach at this point. launch app on phone, approve spotify login, go to app on watch to connect watch to phone… no. Just infinite cannot connect to phone but sure have pure access to my spotify account! No thanks! Let’s go spotify just add apple watch mechanic already.

did not work
Whenever i try to play a song it gets stuck on loading
Taking to long to load
My music is taking to long to load on my phone
Doesn’t recognize premium account
Waste of space. Doesn’t recognize my premium Spotify account and thus won’t allow me to login. No support or help link available; just kicks me out. Don’t waste your time and energy downloading and installing.
Great potential
This app does what it says it does. No hiccups. If you can add volume control via the crown and a complication icon (it's there but no icon) please. Unfortunately, it does not do what I want; play music directly from my watch. Like the developer said, this problem stems from Spotify's end. Best of luck!

Revision for the app
Is there anyway between the app n Spotify can a revision be made to not have the phone on you while using the app through the watch. It’s kinda pointless to have the app for the watch when I have to have my phone on me anyways. Kinda feel like it would use 2x the data n it’s a hassle to have my phone while I run

No point
I don’t see the difference between this and the Spotify app other than it lags badly
Doesn't work with new apple watch
I have a 40mm version 5.1.1 apple watch and IOS 12. Spotify premium. My phone never connects with my watch, even though both are running the app. I even tried having Spotify playing in the background. Too bad it doesn't work.
Doesn’t work even though “fixed” this week
Keeps locking on launch app on iPhone. The problem hasn’t been fixed! This app is not Much use if you can’t use Apple Watch controls independently of iPhone. Crap
Good app but...
No icon on the Apple Watch. It’s a blank space.
Have to launch the app before you launch Apple Watch app. If I launch the app on my watch, it should launch the app on my phone automatically.
Your so close! Fix these issues and it will be a 5 star app!!

Response from developer
slr1966, Thanks for the encouraging words, really appreciate it. I'm working on resolving the blank app icon on the watch (never happened before) but I believe I know what it is. I've also made some improvements to streamline the flow, the idea is you'll only need your phone to login, and your tracks will play in the background. Bit more testing to go!
Great app to control Spotify from your watch
This app is really good. However, the reason for my 4 Star rating is the buttons on the app on the watch or not labeled for voiceover. Also, it would be really nice if we could get a shuffle play when you choose a playlist. Otherwise, very good app!
Response from developer
Wilcjames, I'll add the voiceovers in the next release which will be out soon :)
Not working
It keeps saying it cannot find my watch and have tried advice for previous reviews!
Thank you!
Now I can choose songs from my Spotify playlist on my wrist. Took 2 goes to connect but now fine.
Works
This product works very well with my Apple Watch Gen1 and iPhone 7+ both updated fully at time of writing. I’m able to swap with ease between songs and playlist no hassle from my watch.
My only problem is when my AirPods are connected to my iPhone I am unable to skip tracks from my AirPods. This is due to the fact when I double tap my AirPod is doesn’t recognise they are connected to Pulsar even though I have changed them to use pulsar in the app. It just reverts back to Spotify and starts playing from there.
Maybe the integration of AirPods to top this app completely.
Other than that working completely fine! If you wish for more information then let me know. Thank You

Requires phone constantly?
Hi there,
From I can see it’s a great app however my hope was I could use my cellular series 4 Apple Watch and leave my phone in my car when going for a run but I can’t seem to get that to work, does it indeed require the phone via Bluetooth at all times?

Frustrating
Lags like no tomorrow when you try to use it with Spotify and occasionally freezes when you try to skip or change songs from a playlist.
The default music control on the apple watch works fine and is smooth. No lag or crashing or freezing like this app.
This app is like if you lost your remote control for your TV and you buy a 3rd party remote but realise it doesn’t work and wish you had your remote that came with the TV.

Does what it claims to do
The app does what it claims to do. You can select, play, and navigate your Spotify playlists and tracks with the app via your watch. However, it does not have the exact functionality as the Spotify app; that shouldn't be expected or warranted for a watch UX. The only thing I'd suggest for the Developer is to improve upon the onboarding UX, as it seems too many people mess that up and end up frustrated. All in all, it's a good app that WORKS and is a solid interim solution until Spotify addresses the market demand for a native Watch app.

BaeTheBear, Thank you for the fair rating and review! I do want to let you I’m already working on an onboarding experience to help users better understand the current flow needed due to the sdk limitations. I’m also actively working on improving the login and play flow from the phone in hopes of streamlining it a bit. As for the missing features, please let me know what you feel would make it better. You can edit your initial review and just add a note to the end. As an FYI, I’m entertaining adding shuffle and save/heart to the watch. Thanks!
Yes yes yes....
This is just what I needed/wanted. Nice work fella. Apple Watch now controlling Spotify which is now playing back on my Amazon Echo. Happy days.
Great now it works
Not entirely sure what's changed since previous versions but the app now works great! Can finally pick between playlists at work.
Works perfect!
I’m so glad someone made a Spotify app, even if it requires the phone. At least with this app I can leave my phone in my backpack and just use my watch. Can’t wait for Spotify to allow streaming directly from the watch!
Response from developer
Maximd1122, Thanks for the fair rating! This is exactly how I use Pulsar as well. No more phone slipping out your pocket or having to reach into your bag to switch playlists. Enjoy!
