Choose an audio destination on Apple Watch
When playing music, podcasts, or other media on Apple Watch, you can hear the audio output on your paired iPhone, paired Bluetooth headphones or speakers, or the Apple Watch speaker (supported on Apple Watch Series 10 and Apple Watch Ultra 2).
Choose an audio output
Press the side button to open Control Center.
Tap , then choose one of the following destinations:
Your iPhone speaker
The Apple Watch speaker (supported on Apple Watch Series 10 and Apple Watch Ultra 2)
Note: Media playback through the Apple Watch speaker drains the battery more quickly. (10 minutes of audio playback reduces the battery life by 1 hour.) Media playback through the speaker isn’t supported when Apple Watch is being charged.
You can also tap on the play screens of the Audiobooks, Music, Now Playing, and Podcasts apps to open the AirPlay setting.
