YouTube Music will also come on a watch with an older Wear OS
Despite the new version of the application YouTube Music was originally intended only for smart watches with the new Wear OS 3.0, so older models will also see it. According to the portal, GSMArena this should happen this week.
For which models will YouTube Music be available?
The music service that replaced the original Google Play Music service has not been updated for Wear OS for a long time. Its new version did not appear until the introduction of the Samsung Galaxy Watch4 smart watch, which is still the only watch with the new Wear OS 3.0 system.
Maybe that’s why the information has appeared that, like the new version of Google Maps, it won’t be available for older versions of Wear OS. However, information has now appeared in the media that it should be distributed this week for the older version.

The new version of YouTube Music brings offline mode
It should be a version of the Wear OS 2.x system and specific Fossil models resp. Michael Kors 6th generation Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 3 GPS and TicWatch E3. The next smart watch with Wear OS 2.x should be available later this year without further specification.
Like competing Spotify, the new version of YouTube music allows you to download songs for offline playback. These stores are updated whenever the smart watch is connected to a Wi-Fi network. However, please note that only if you are a YouTube Music or YouTube Premium subscriber.
