@crossingthethreshold Do you get the music and coaching encouragement of the NHS couch to 5k from the watch?

@jeremycherfas You donโ€™t get the music, though you can play your own through the app as you run. You do get the coaching (at least words of encouragement and when to switch between walking & running).

@crossingthethreshold I guess if you want music you have to carry a phone then. I suspect my running days are over.

@jeremycherfas You can upload music to your watch via the Watch app on your phone (I use Apple Music, I would guess that other music apps have their way of getting music onto the watch), and then leave your phone behind.

The Watch to 5K page on the App Store makes it clear that there is no need to carry your phone. That is one reason that I bought the app.
