Music - switching source

Former Member over 6 years ago

Hi

I'm sure in the older music app there was an icon to switch the source for music. I normally just listen to music downloaded directly on the device but as I'm using it more this week wanted something different from my phone

The only was I can see to do this is to change the music source through settings, seems long winded.

Did they remove the icon or am I being stupid?

Doesn't it work to press and hold the middle key on the left side (from the play screen)?

I’m with you, the last update ruined it.

Everything was at easy reach on the circular menu now I have to press more buttons and navigate through 3 different menus just for music. Moreever, when I first got the watch it used to switch automatically, if music was playing on the phone it would show you the controls automatically without needing to change source.

Now every time I want to switch to the phone’s music I have to go through a very confusing process, if you open the music app it gives you Now Playing which goes to a black screen and other options to browse the music from the watch, no option to change the source so you need to open app, hold and press the middle button and then hold and press it again to switch menus, it’s absurd!

Glad it's not just me! It seemed so simple before.

This looks still like an open issue. Switching source i.e. Spotify/Local is really annoying to do through Settings.

Couldn't it be handled more effectively, please?
