wAudio 4.2

wAudio is a stand-alone audio player designed for Apple Watch users. The process begins with syncing audio from the iPhone app to your Apple Watch. Following that, pair a Bluetooth device with your Apple Watch through Settings - Bluetooth.

The developer created wAudio to enhance the audiobook listening experience on Apple Watch. Personally used at various locations such as the gym, while commuting, working, or outdoor activities, wAudio is aimed at those who consume audiobooks regularly. Continuous updates and bug fixes are expected based on user feedback. We encourage users to provide reviews outlining any encountered issues or feature requests for further enhancements.

• Note: DRM-protected audio files are not compatible with wAudio's functionality.
• Note: The iPhone app temporarily exports audio files from iTunes for transferring purposes, storing them in temporary cache files which are eventually deleted to preserve space on the device once transferred to Apple Watch.
• Note: wAudio does not request access to HealthKit data but requires permission solely for playing audio in the background seamlessly.
