Can't manage to get music control working together with Spotify (Android 6.0)

Former Member over 9 years ago

Hi all,

Ik have a problem with my Forerunner 235 controlling Spotify. The play/pauze and skip options do not work at all. Instead, pressing them will start Google Play Music on my phone which can be controlled without a problem.

How can I use my watch to control Spotify instead? Uninstalling Google Play Music unfortunatly doesn't do the trick.

I was running Android 5.1 (Android Revolution HD ROM) when I first noticed this issue, so I installed a new ROM (Android Revolution HD 51.0) which runs Android 6.0, but I still have the same problem.

Can anyone help me out please? :)

Thanks in advance!

Make sure Spotify is set as your default music player on your phone and in the music player settings in your Garmin Connect mobile app. This works for me.

Thank you so much! I needed to set Spotify as the default player in the Garmin Connect mobile app. You made me a happy man tonight! :)
