Is it possible to download and listen to music or audiobooks using wireless Bluetooth earbuds on an Apple Watch Series 9 or without an iPhone present?
I’ve been thinking about getting an Apple Watch, I want to get one because I like running and listening to music, but hate having to carry my phone around with me when I run. I was thinking about getting an Apple Watch to listen to music with, but I have heard conflicting reports as to whether or not this is possible. I’ve been told that, apparently, you can only listen to it with Bluetooth earbuds if an iPhone is present - however, I have also heard that Bluetooth earbuds can be connected directly to the Watch. Posts such as this: bluetooth music from watch to earbuds - c… - Apple Community
make it seem like it is possible to connect it directly to the Watch, but I have also been told by people in stores where I’ve gone to look at Apple Watches that it isn’t possible without connecting to a phone and having it present.
I’d also like to ask as to whether or not it is possible to download music or audiobooks directly onto the Apple Watch, without the phone present. The audible website seems to claim that it is: https://help.audible.co.uk/s/article/download-titles?language=en_GB#:~:text=Open%20the%20Audible%20app%20on,for%20offline%20listening%20once%20complete.
but an employee at a store told me that apparently Apple Watches have ‘no internal storage’.
please give me a straight answer, can I download and listen to audiobooks and music on an Apple Watch using wireless earbuds and leave my phone at home? Or is that simply not possible.
Thank you for reading this.
