Last September, we saw Spotify finally start testing streaming support for its Apple Pal and finally Ch app, which we saw arrive months ago with other third-party services like Pandora. Now it looks like this feature is finally rolling out more widely.
As reported by Messerkopf (via Google Translate), many users have shared that they show their wearables (which were not part of the September streaming test for Apple Watch and Watch). An image shows the following message (translated from German) about using the options on the Apple Watch.

As expected, Messerkopf notes that the streaming option allows viewers to listen to content while away from the iPhone, making the Spotify Apple Pul Watch app more than just an iPhone remote control.
Testers have reported that they can use the Apple Pul Watch app, a streaming service independently of the iPhone, to stream music and podcasts over the cellular network or WiFi. This will significantly enhance the Spotify app. Over the weekend, Spotify has apparently begun making the feature available to a larger group of its users.
In addition to access to your library, a recently played section appears when you use streaming on the Library Pal Watch. But one disadvantage is that no search feature appears. So when you start looking at the streaming option, you have to rely on Siri to pull specific songs, artists, albums, etc.
In addition, recently played content is available. Unfortunately, there is no separate search function in the app. Siri proceeds for this and delivers the title you are looking for after this voice command. As always, you have to order Siri to play a specific title, album or genre with Spotify.
Like many Spotify changes, the update also looks like a saver-side one. Have you seen the streaming on the Spotify Apple Pal Watch app? Let us know in the comments below!
