Spotify now works better on your Apple Watch, and Google aggregates your health data on Android. These are the apps of the week.
Spotify
For Apple Watch users, Spotify has received a major update. The extra screen real estate of the latest Apple Watch models is now better utilized, so you don’t need to use the iPhone app as often.
For example, album art and song titles appear larger, making it easier to find what you’re looking for. It’s now also possible to show all individual songs or podcast episodes in each playlist and toggle shuffle on and off.
The main new feature is downloading music and podcasts to your Apple Watch without needing the iPhone app. Spotify Premium subscribers have been able to put audio on their watch for a few years, but only now can it be done through the smartwatch screen itself.
Health Connection
Google wants to combine all the health data on your smartphone through the new Health Connect app. Apps that connect to Health Connect can then communicate with each other for a complete picture of your health.
For example, the workout you track in an app is synced to the app you use to count your calories. You can indicate per application whether you allow access to your data.
Health Connect can be downloaded from the Play Store, but Google clearly states that it is still a beta version. This means that the app may still be unstable and have bugs.
The app currently works with Fitbit, Samsung Health, Google Fit, MyFitnessPal, Peloton, WeightWatchers, and Lifesum, among others. Other applications will be added later.
