My Question or Issue

What can be done to change the speed of podcasts streamed on the watch through Spotify? The speed dial is greyed out. 

Surely it can be done?

[FractionBronson]

Honestly, not one reply 😂

Anyone?!

Hi @FractionBronson,

Thanks for reaching out. We can confirm that for the moment, it's not possible to change podcast speed on Apple Watch. If this is something you would like to see implemented, consider checking out the Ideas section and submitting a suggestion for it to be added. It seems to already have been requested here.

Hope this clears things up.

It is honestly crazy that it is not an option on one device but it is on every other. 

What is the reason for it?

That basically makes the download feature useless.

Any movement on adding it? I had the original post in the ideas section.

Crazy this isn't possible!!!   Please FIX!!!

I'm really miffed that this very basic feature is not available. Seriously?!
