Works... Mostly. I love that this app can launch Spotify on its own but unfortunately I can't pause tracks with the watch. It pauses the track for a second and resumes play on my Ticwatch E For now I am using this to launch and the stock media app to play. Not the worst way to spend 3$ but I wish all controls worked.

i love what this app does and hiw it works but it absolutely wrecks battery life. whrn i have the app open it will eat 30% in about 90 minutes, and just having it installed means that it ears 30%+ over the course of the day. i cant say for certain, because it doesnt show up in battery usage, but there's ~40% unaccounted for since I installed it. God, it's stupid i have to use a 3rd party app to rate songs in Google Play...
