Spotify no longer available for APAC models

Spotify was added to as part of the software version upgrade to 5.10.

However, this update was not made available to APAC models, which were still stuck on 4.20.

Garmin rolled out 5.10 to APAC models late last week, but WITHOUT SPOTIFY - and in fact all reference to Spotify was scrubbed from the change history.

The change history for the APAC update previously specifically mentioned Spotify. This stealth scrub is unbelievably scummy.

Thanks Garmin, for once again screwing over your APAC customers.

This is really annoying. I bought this watch just because of Spotify.

Can we please get some clarity as to whether Spotify will be available for APAC models at all or not? And if yes, by when?

Bumping this so people can be aware that Garmin is screwing over its APAC customers.

Thanks Garmin and Spotify for showing APAC some love. It was a messy process, but at least we got Spotify in the end.

It's possible that the Spotify app has been updated, and it's possible it even supports APAC models now.

We don't know because Garmin forgot to pay the electric bill, since I've been getting this all day.

Spotify is working great on my APAC model. Much better interface than the AWA music player that I was using before.

If you've been waiting on purchasing the APAC model subject to Spotify support, rest assured that it is now safe to go ahead and buy the Fenix 5 plus.
