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

@tommym.6048 5 лет назад

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?

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?

@zer0534 5 лет назад

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

The original 5X (non- 5X Plus) was never designed as a music watch, which is why it's not coming to that unit. Only the 5 Plus series has had music from the start.

@sherrycammack2052 5 лет назад

This is HUGE!! Hope it comes to the vivoactive 3 music

@Dcrainmaker 5 лет назад

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.

@mrpear6594 4 года назад

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?

Any news on when Garmin will work with a bank other than Santander in UK?

@Dcrainmaker 5 лет назад

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.

@sfuetjrygadg2rgdfgsqdwda 5 лет назад
