A:AnswerYou can not listen to music on the watch itself. The watch came with spotify on it, so you can stop/play and change the songs from it. It plays through your phone only though. You can add apps, not personally tried YouTube but I'm sure it works the same as the music. (The watch does not have a speaker)
A:AnswerHello Guerilla, great question! Samsung has Bluetooth and LTE smart watches. The LTE version can receive calls and messages without being connected to a phone. However, this watch model is the Bluetooth version. ^Elizabeth

A:AnswerThe Galaxy Watch Active 2 will also have Fall Detection. The feature will work much in the same way that it does on the Apple Watch Series 4. If the device detects a hard fall while it’s on the wrist, it will display an alert on the screen and also vibrate to nudge the user. They can use one-tap options to either contact emergency services or dismiss the alert. If the smartwatch doesn’t get a response in a pre-determined period time, it will automatically call emergency services and also send messages to the user’s emergency contacts.
A:AnswerBoth! There's a preference if you'd like the screen to wake at a flick of the wrist, or just tapping on the screen twice like you may already do with your phone.
I would say any Android phone works just fine with this watch, but definitely if you have a Galaxy, it works perfectly. Other android phones may have connection issues like random drop disconnections, connection reach issues, or if plan on using Samsung apps like Samsung Pay, or Samsung Health, the app that tracks all exercise activity.
A:AnswerHello Shrey, thanks for asking! All you need to do is transfer music to your watch and then play it right from your wrist. You can also stream music from Spotify. This watch runs on OS Tizen 4.0. ^Elizabeth
A:AnswerYou can answer phone calls on the watch but you still have to use the phone to talk, you can't talk through the watch. You can text on the watch and you can also speak you text to the watch.
