Wavelet is a standalone YouTube Music player for Wear OS watches (Wear OS 3+, API 30+). It's built on Metrolist and runs without a phone.

New in 0.4.3

  • Recommended music on Home: up to five of YouTube Music's home sections (Quick picks, mixes, recommended albums and playlists).
  • Playlists button on Home: your Liked songs and playlists.
  • Show uploaded music: a switch on the Playlists screen that lists the songs you've uploaded to YouTube Music. It needs Sign in on phone or Sign in on watch.

Downloads

File Install on Needed?
Wavelet-watch-0.4.3.apk your watch yes
Wavelet-phone-0.4.2.apk the phone paired with the watch only for "Sign in on phone" (unchanged since 0.4.2)

Features

  • Search songs, albums and playlists by voice or keyboard. Results scroll with the crown.
  • Now Playing with play/pause, skip, seek and artwork. The crown changes the volume. Synced lyrics are optional.
  • Plays through Bluetooth headphones only, never the watch speaker.
  • Downloads (with Wi-Fi-only and charging-only options) and a listening cache. Both play fully offline.
  • Autoplay of similar songs, volume normalization, skip silence and a sleep timer.
  • A Tile and a watch-face complication.
  • Sign-in:
    • Sign in on phone: sign in with the Wavelet phone app and it sends your full account to the watch.
    • Sign in on watch: only on watches that have a WebView.

Sign in with a code isn't in GitHub builds. It needs a Google Cloud OAuth client in testing mode, which only works for listed test users.

Install (Wi-Fi ADB)

  1. On the watch, turn on Developer options. Then turn on ADB debugging and Wireless debugging.
  2. On your computer, run:
    adb pair <watch-ip>:<pairing-port>
    adb connect <watch-ip>:<port>
    adb install -r Wavelet-watch-0.4.3.apk
  3. For "Sign in on phone", install Wavelet-phone-0.4.2.apk on your phone. The phone and watch apps must both come from GitHub releases. Play builds are signed differently and won't connect to GitHub builds.
