The Fossil smartwatch is known for its minimalist and sleek design, which distinguishes it from bulkier models. With its simple round face and three side buttons, it looks elegant and modern without sacrificing its clean aesthetic.
However, when it comes to listening to music on a Fossil smartwatch, there's a catch—it doesn't support Apple Music natively. For Apple Music subscribers, this can be frustrating. But don't worry! In this guide, we’ll show you how to use a tool that makes it possible to play Apple Music on your Fossil smartwatch.
Part 1. Can You Get Apple Music on Fossil Smartwatch?
The latest Fossil smartwatch is namely Fossil Gen 6, which runs on Wear OS and supports several popular music streaming services. While the availability of dedicated apps on the watch itself may vary, Spotify and YouTube Music are the music streaming services that can be used on Fossil smartwatches.
Unfortunately, as of now, there is no official Apple Music app available for Fossil Sport Watches. However, you can use third-party software, like DRmare Apple Music Converter to download and convert Apple Music as local tracks supported by Spotify and YouTube Music. In this case, you can use a Fossil smartwatch-compatible streaming music service as the bridge to integrate with Apple Music on the Fossil Watch.
You can browse and download Apple Music playlists for offline listening and control playback directly from the Fossil smartwatch.
