Hello Ricky2222,


Thanks for that info and choosing the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you want to listen to music on your Apple Watch without having your iPhone with you. Since you have the Apple Watch Series 3 GPS + Cellular, this means your Apple Watch has a internal capacity of 16GB. Here is more info about moving music to your Apple Watch and how to check how much music you have stored on your Apple Watch.

Add albums and playlists to Apple Watch. Open the Apple Watch app on iPhone, tap My Watch, then tap Music. Under Playlists & Albums, tap Add Music. Select albums and playlists to add them to Apple Watch.

Tip: Use the Music app on iPhone to create playlists specifically for music you want to listen to on Apple Watch—music that motivates you during a workout, for example.


See how much music is stored on Apple Watch. On Apple Watch, open the Settings app User uploaded file, go to General > About, then look under Songs.
