    Hey folks - thanks for watching! I also put together a full step by step post here on how to get everything up and running as well. Enjoy! www.dcrainmaker.com/2018/10/spotify-now-available-on-garmin-everything-you-need-to-know.html

      Does the app have a function for being able to choose a certain point of the song to play? You know, the little progress bar that shoes how far in the song is and how you can move it back and forth? Is that anywhere on the app? or even on the watch itself anywhere?

      Thank you for doing this....4 years ago! Lol, I just got the 6pro solar, but I don't have any of those first screens to add music. Mine just shows music controls straight away, and has not options to add music, although I did the Spotify on the Garmin app, connected to wifi, etc.
      Have you any suggestions in this situation?

    SO I originally put music on my watch library, before setting up Spotify. Used it no problem. Then I opened spotify, downloaded some of my playlists and used it. The only library that shows is in my Spotify. Is it true you cant now go back to your regular downloaded music on the watch. I think I read you have to close the app. There is no such method. There is a logoff button with a warning that all content will be lost. So basically I have to upload every time I toggle between the music library and spotify library? Am I missing something?

    Hey Ray. Thanks for doing what you do. All really useful stuff. I was just wondering if you (or anyone else) had an opinion on the Tactix Charlie? I'm torn between that and the 5x plus. I'm not really interested in garmin pay, music or pulse ox. I just want a robust smart watch with a reliable heart rate monitor. The training monitoring and sleep monitoring is something I'd use a lot. I do a lot of cycling (mountain, road, cyclocross/gravel) in pretty remote, wet and muddy conditions (Wales, UK) I prefer the looks of the tactix but I don't want to miss out on the possible hardware and software upgrades of the new plus watches. Cheers

      Garmin says "More models will be supported soon", and given they only have two other models (FR645 and Vivoactive 3 Music), it's a fair bet you'll see it on both. Garmin also notes that they want the capabilities of their music-enabled devices to be equal from a music standpoint.

      For the most past, when it comes to banks it’s actually more about consumers asking their banks rather than asking Garmin. Certainly asking Garmin helps to ensure your bank is on their radar, but ultimate it’s 99.9999% of the time the bank itself that’s holding back. By having consumers apply pressure to their banks, it lets them know it matters and will be a higher priority to get integrated.

    Many questions: 1) You are indeed below the level of the sea. 2) How it would work on the non WiFi devices (VivoActive 3 Music)? 3) Where can I find your Spotify playlits? 4) Can I listen to those playlists on Spotify now? 5) Octuber (which is the equivalent of April in the Southern hemisphere) and it is already snowing? That was fast.

      1) Yeah, my actual elevation is basically sea-level give or take a few feet - many watches have problems with it in Amsterdam. 2) Vivoactive 3 Music has WiFi. 3) My Spotify playlists? 4) Sorry, don't understand? 5) I'm in Canada today for travel, and it is indeed unfortunately snowing.

      This is usually because your Garmin IQ Connect is not synched with your music capable Garmin watch, or is synched with a different Garmin watch that is not music capable.

    watching this in 2021 i just hope they update their watches this year to wear lte and being able to use spotify without downloading songs or using a smartwatch, otherwise you have to die into apple watches, and in terms of exercise suunto and garmin and way better, (also in battery life). In the end all i want is spotify in a nice useful sport watch.

      @Dcrainmaker  5 років тому +1

      Assuming you're referring to the Fenix 5s Plus, then yup! The non-Plus Fenix 5s doesn't have any space on it for music, but the newer Plus series does. No phone required beyond initial setup.

      Double-check that your watch is talking to the Garmin Connect Mobile app first. It should show a green circle in the upper right corner of the main screen of the app, indicating connected and syncing.
