Device

Operating System

iOS 13 and watchOS 6.0.1

 

My Question or Issue

With the latest update, it seems that the elapsed time (track time) of a song displayed on the top left corner of the Spotify app on Apple Watch dissapers. Now, it just displays "Spotify". Does this have to do with iSO 13? How do I bring it back?

I can't believe that Spotify removed this from the watch app!

It's a wrist watch!

It's showing the time! 
Why removing the main function of the watch, to show time? 
To put the name of the app?! 
Ridiculous! 

Can confirm that on the latest version of the Spotify app, the time is back and there is also now a bar showing the elapsed tome, shown right below the don’t title and artist. Glad to have this feature back and in an even better form. 

Thanks for letting me know! 

Not fixed on my watch.

I've updated the app on my phone manually and then restarted the app. 
Now it works. 

Working fine on my end, Series 3 watch on watchOS 6.1, Spotify app version also attached.

Same with me. 
Had to update the app manually and restart. 
Now it's workin. 

Ugh. I have done all updates. Restarted phone and watch and no count down clock. No fair!!!!! 

Hmm. That's a bummer. 
Which OS version do you have on both devices? 
Try updating the software of the phone and the watch as well. 
I hope this will solve it. 

Thanks so much for letting us know! It’s back up and working on my watch following the manual update!

Alright. Mine FINALLY updated and is working perfectly.

The latest Spotify iOS app update has an updated now playing screen that shows the time of the song remaining again
