I tried 10.1 on the beta and now the full release and cannot fathom how it doesn’t work to simply skip a song on Spotify. Is this a Spotify app problem on the watch in specific? The double touch gesture works fine on the Apple Music app on the watch.

I was so hyped because, while running and biking, being able to double touch to change is great. As you can tell I have a bone to pick with Spotify developers for the Apple Watch. You can’t even filter playlists by dated added. It is so dogshit 💀

    Yep, it doesn’t do anything with Spotify. All it does is give back the little “command not understood” hand shake icon thing. Annoying to say the least.

    I have 10.0 and use the “assistive touch” setting which is essentially the double tap but with more hand gestures. Only the pause function works with Spotify and changing songs/skipping 15 seconds in a podcast do not work. If you try to use a hand gesture for things other than pause in Spotify the watch will do a weak haptic and not do anything.
