Any attempt to connect to Spotify via Garmin Connect on an Android device results in a failure to connect to Spotify with the only prompt offering options to "Cancel" and "Retry". Pressing "Retry" never lets one actually enter credentials, while pressing "Cancel" quits the connect operation. This causes a blocking state with no way to bypass it. The only way the problem can be bypassed is by using an iPhone with the latest version of Garmin Connect app posted in the App Store and connecting to Spotify from there first. Currently the App Store version of Garmin Connect sits at 4.29.1.1 so I would say that the app must be at minimum this version for it to work. The Android version of Garmin Connect likely does not work regardless of the device because the Play Store app is still only at version 4.29. I have tested three Android devices, Pixel 4 XL, Samsung S20 Ultra, and Samsung Note 10+ and none of them are able to connect to Spotify using version 4.29 of the app posted in the Play Store. iPhone 11 Pro running latest version of iOS and Garmin Connect version 4.29.1.1 worked immediately and connected without issues. Edit: Just wanted to add that the persistent blocking pop-up issue is not just affecting Spotify on Android. It is also affecting Samsung SmartThings integration for the watch. Once again, moving to the iPhone and using the app from the Apple App Store on iOS enabled me to bypass the issue. I am 100% certain now the problem is with the outdated Android Play Store app.https://forums.garmin.com/apps-software/connect-iq/f/connect-iq---spotify/216868/spotify-ciq-app-not-working-correctly/1044171Thu, 09 Apr 2020 15:57:00 GMTa9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:4384818c-04f0-47a7-a9c0-6b2655a02ba5Garmin-AndrewThank you for sharing what worked, we appreciate your feedback!https://forums.garmin.com/apps-software/connect-iq/f/connect-iq---spotify/216868/spotify-ciq-app-not-working-correctly/1044064Thu, 09 Apr 2020 13:26:00 GMTa9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:c60d0738-844c-4fba-ab11-896a5cdf1a6dFormer MemberHi - here's how I got mine fixed..... 1. synced the watch with Garmin Express (connect to laptop) 2. "forgot" and then re-associated the watch with my wifi network 3. uninstalled Spotify in Garmin Express, then re-installed it 4. Disconnected watch from laptop 5. Using the Garmin mobile app, went into Music section, clicked on Spotify That kickstarted the Spotify signup process. I signed in as normal and after a couple of minutes was able to access all my playlists in Spotify (had to wait couple of minutes for these to become available though) I've had to re-download all my playlists to the watch but otherwise all seems fixed.
