You don't mention that you can no longer choose your phone as a source of music from the watch. You are now limited to playing the music actually stored on your watch whereas under Watch OS3 you could simply select the phone s a source and then choose any album stored there. Bad, bad move from Apple.

In case anyone else was wondering, the Favourites, Chill mix and New Music mix options will not appear unless you are an Apple Music subscriber.

And I've noticed on my watch that since upgrading to Watch OS4 I can no longer skip a track playing on my Watch *completely*. The skip forward/back buttons have been replaced with forward/back by 30 secs only. I can't see any way of changing that which is annoying !
