All,

Some of you have shared that you have been using Spotify with the shuffle feature, which seems to be causing the watch trouble. We would like to have a new thread started for this specific circumstance…

I have found the following works for me.

Play any playlist with shuffle enabled.

Skip the first song before it ends and it plays through the rest of the playlist without a problem.

Same problem for me with Forerunner 245 music.

Did not have this problem before, hope Garmin fixes it. Last update did not fix this issue.

Yes Garmin may e-mail me, and view my account. I live in the Netherlands.

Hello - is there a fix for this? Have same issue and same model watch. It stops after one song unless I remember to skip the first song. Very frustrating as have to then run with no music. I don’t think it’s blue tooth as I still get the voice prompts from the run just no music.

questions

I use a Garmon Watch 255 music edition and music stops playing (or looses connection with Bluetooth headphone) all the time as well.

Headphone is Beats Fit Pro. (they work like a charm with my iphone but it is a nightmare with the Garmin watch 255 music)
