Spotify on Samsung Gear S3 Classic (Can't find modes/ use as remote)

[Nander86]

Dear All,

I have an Iphone X, Spotify premium and yesterday I got myself a Samsung Gear S3 Classic from a rather untruthful salesman at the Samsung Concept Store. I bought it for the possibility of Spotify alone, otherwise I would have bought a running watch which is what my true goal was. Playing music without bringing my phone was the tiebreaker.

However, I can get offline playlist to work and went for a run. However, I have the follwing questions/issues.

1.) In several videos the app, under setting, have "modes", my app doesn't, why is this? (I can't choos remote)

2.) with wifi connected I can get the watch app to stay synched with the phone and show the song that is being played, but i can't change songs. Should it be possible to use the app as a remote?

Thank you beforehand, I really want to be able to use the watch as a remote for spotify whenever I have my phone with me (a.k.a when not doing sports).
