    I heard that PCasts now supports WearOS.

    I have beta version of PCasts for Android (Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G -USA, Android 13) installed, but Google Play does not offer me an option to install PCasts on my watch (Samsung Watch 5 Pro -WearOS 3)

    Any help would be appreciated. All components are the latest available.

    PCasts version: 7.41-rc-3 (9107)

    Hi, @bogdatov! Here are the steps to install the Wear OS app on your watch:

    1. Head to the Google Play Store on any device
    2. Log in with the Google account your watch is using
    3. From the Pocket Casts app page, select that you want to install the app to your watch

    Please note that access to the app’s features are currently only available to Plus users. So, after the app starts, you’ll immediately be asked to log in to a Plus account.

    You can sign up for a 14-day trial of Plus here: https://pocketcasts.com/plus/#get-plus

    The Google play store on my phone does not offer me an option to install on watch. Only phone and tablet options are there

    Try it in the browser on the PC. That was the only way it worked for me.
