4/5Apples sync failed me, but this works great
I don’t give reviews, but this app has really helped me keep offline music reliably on my watch. Ever since watchos 10 I’ve had issues sending music the native way to the watch. This app sends music reliably the first time. A perfect way to setup playlists for the gym or running without the phone around. Two improvements: * The connection to the AirPods seems delayed initially when away from the phone * Request: add ability to import directly from phone music library

2/5Sorry🫥
Look, I think your app is cool, but I can’t use it I would, but I can’t use it with my iPad no matter what I try it won’t let me sync to my watch I really would appreciate if you could respond and make it so my watch would sync to my iPad cause that would be an absolute game changer so I’d really appreciate it if you could make it so my iPad works syncing to my watch because if you could, I could rise it to five stars🤩. so far I can’t use it and it’s driving me insane and I know there’s probably gonna be a thing saying developer response and could you please try and make it iPad compatible to watch because I haven’t found a really good way to actually listen to music or videos I’m 12 BTW🤓 I just started middle school and the bus is boring enough without any music I have some headphones and when you respond and hopefully fix it i’ll finally be able to not be bored on the bus anymore i’m gonna start this review cause I can go on and on why I need this app so I’m just gonna end it with please please respond and fix the issue with the iPad and watch compatibility.

5/5Finally, the Perfect Apple Watch Media Player!
After struggling with the outdated iWatch Videos app, which hasn’t been updated in ages and recently stopped working altogether, I’m thrilled to have found Player for Watch. This app is exactly what I’ve been looking for—it does everything you’d expect and does it flawlessly. The setup is simple: I can load both videos and music straight to my Apple Watch, and playback is smooth and reliable. The interface is polished, intuitive, and clearly designed with care. Best of all, the app is regularly updated, so I feel confident that it will keep working for a long time to come. For only $4, it’s absolutely worth it. Compared to my frustrating experience with older apps, Player for Watch feels like a breath of fresh air. If you want to take your video and music library on the go with your Apple Watch, I highly recommend this app!

5/5Fantastic!
Update months later: I still love this app! I have lots of music on my watch. Couldn’t be happier. I really dislike having to add mp3s to the Apple Music app then transfer them to the music app on the watch. Simply too many steps. This Player for Watch app is amazing game changer. I can transfer music from my Dropbox and google drive to the app, then let the app move it to my watch. Transfer is fast and stable. The app on the watch is simple and has big buttons to hit while exercising. It also integrates with the workout app on the watch—left swipe brings up the music player and the controls there will change songs playing on this app. I haven’t tested the video yet. Overall I love this app, best money I’ve spent on a watch app. ONE TIP: if the app on the phone doesn’t sync with the watch, restart both the phone and the watch, and syncing will happen.

3/5I thought it was great but started getting a bug
I loved that this was the first app to do exactly what I wanted and even got the premium version but this morning as I let the music keep playing it started to just stop the music. So I would restart the song and the problem started getting more frequent. Are there any settings I should look at or am I experiencing a bug with the latest version? I’m using an iPhone 11 and Apple Watch Series 8, any help would be appreciated. Update: the issue became less frequent but I will update the app to see if it’s 100% fixed. Thanks for the response. Update: updated and it back to stopping frequently I will keep using it and let you know when it stops or becomes less frequent. I wish I didn’t have to test this but I will if it makes it better in the long run.
