My Question or Issue

Hi,

I've recently got a Samsung Active Watch 2, but I can't seem to download/find the Spotify app when using the watch in watch-only mode. It does show when connected to a phone however.

Is this a known bug?  I have zero interest in synching my messages and contacts to my watch so only intend to use it in watch-only mode. 

I simply want to download a few playlists to the watch and use it phone-free connected to some Bluetooth earphones. 

Hope someone can offer a solution!

Many thanks,

Danny
