No space for music on Apple Watch

I have 17gb of free space on my Apple Watch, but it’s telling me that my “storage allocated to media” is full. Now I can’t add anymore songs to my Apple Watch even though I have ample space.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7

I was just informed by Apple that they put storage limitations on all Apple Watches. According to them, media storage for Apple Watch is only 8Gb.


So, even if you have ample storage, it wouldn't matter. Music, podcasts and audiobooks have a total storage limitation of 8Gb. Not sure why lol.
