Many people like Amazfit watches because they are powerful and versatile, working with both Android and iOS. Watches like the Amazfit Bip 6 are still considered some of the best smartwatches for 2026, offering features that go beyond basic health tracking. You get all the essentials and more, often without many compromises - and in a budget-friendly way. But despite all the features, from fitness tracking to making calls, one problem many users face is music streaming.
While the companion Zepp app allows users to add and upload local audio files easily, there's no official music service app like Apple Music. That means if you want to listen to your Apple Music playlists without your phone nearby, you either need to purchase the songs or convert them to MP3 - a feature made easy by tools like ViWizard Apple Music Converter. All you need is your Amazfit Watch and a pair of wireless headphones, and your Apple Music is ready to go.
Amazfit Watches That Support Uploading Local Music Files (MP3/WAV):
- Amazfit T-Rex 3
- Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro
- Amazfit GTR 3 Pro
- Amazfit GTR 2 / GTR 2e
- Amazfit GTS 2 / GTS 2e / GTS 2 Mini
In this post, we'll show you how to convert Apple Music to a compatible format, transfer it to your Amazfit Watch, and play it seamlessly. Let's get started!
Step 1. Convert Apple Music to MP3 for Amazfit Watch
First, you need to make your Apple Music tracks compatible with the Amazfit Watch. While Amazfit watches support MP3 and M4A audio file formats for offline listening, Apple Music streaming files are usually protected, which means you can't just transfer them directly to your watch's "Music" folder.
To fix this, you can use ViWizard Apple Music Converter. You can download it for both Mac and Windows. Once installed, it will remove DRM protection and convert your Apple Music songs, albums, playlists, or even your whole library to MP3 or M4A, keeping the original quality from Apple Music Web Player.
When you start the conversion, pick the tracks you want to listen to on your Amazfit Watch, set the format, and start converting. This is also a good time to review your music and remove any tracks you no longer want. The converter will handle the rest automatically, producing MP3 or M4A files that are fully supported by most Amazfit models. ViWizard also keeps important info like titles, artists, album art, and lyrics. Once saved to your PC or Mac, the files are ready to be uploaded through the Zepp app.
A full-featured Apple Music converter that easily converts Apple Music songs, albums, playlists - including iCloud Music Library content, personalized recommendations, and curated playlists - into MP3, M4A, M4B, WAV, AIFF, and FLAC so you can keep your Apple Music forever or transfer it to any device without restrictions.
Step 1Install the Converter on Your Computer
First, download and install a reliable Apple Music converter on your Windows or Mac computer. Launch it and sign in using the same Apple ID you use for Apple Music. This ensures the software can access your full library, including playlists, albums, and tracks you've added, so you can prepare them for use outside the Apple Music app.
Step 2Choose a Watch-Friendly Output Format
Go to the settings and select a widely supported format, like MP3 or another standard audio format your Amazfit watch support. Adjust quality settings if you want to control sound clarity or file size - higher bitrates give better quality but take more space on your watch.
Step 3Select the Songs You Want
Browse your Apple Music library directly within the converter and select the songs, albums, or playlists you plan to transfer. Add them to the conversion queue - this step creates a clean, DRM-free copes that can be played on your Amazfit watch. Once ready, start the conversion process.
Step 4Transfer Music to Your Amazfit Watch
When conversion is complete, open the output folder to find your new audio files. Then, use the Zepp app (or USB transfer if your watch model allows) to upload the tracks to your Amazfit device. After transferring, you can play your music directly from the watch via Bluetooth headphones or the watch speaker, without needing your phone.
Step 2. Transfer Converted Apple Music to Your Phone
After converting your Apple Music tracks, the next step is to move them to your phone. This is necessary because the Amazfit Watch syncs music through your phone using the Zepp companion app. Connect your phone to your computer and place the converted MP3 or M4A files in a Music folder that's easy to access from your phone.
To Transfer Music from a Windows PC
Step 1 Connect your Amazfit Watch to your PC using the USB cable and charging base that came with your watch.
Step 2 Open File Explorer and look under This PC (or My Computer) for your Amazfit device.
Step 3 Double-click the device to open its contents, then double-click the "Music" folder.
Step 4 Drag and drop or copy your converted Apple Music files (.mp3 or .m4a) into the Music folder.
To Transfer Music from a macOS Computer
Step 1 Download and install Android File Transfer for Mac.
Step 2 Connect your Amazfit Watch to your Mac with the USB cable and charging base.
Step 3 Open Android File Transfer from the Applications folder.
Step 4 Double-click the "Music" folder in Android File Transfer. Drag and drop your converted Apple Music files into this folder.
Most Amazfit Watches have up to 2GB of internal storage, enough for offline music playback. You can now use Bluetooth headphones to enjoy your music during workouts.
Step 3. Upload Converted Apple Music to Your Amazfit Watch
Next, open the Zepp app on your phone. Zepp is a comprehensive companion app for Amazfit devices that not only manages settings but also uploads music. In the app, go to Profile → [Your Amazfit Watch] → App Settings → Music → Upload Music, then select the files you want to transfer. Once the upload is complete, your songs are fully available offline on your watch.
