Overly excited I purchased my VA3 Music today as I heard the news about Spotify offline availability on the watch. It took me some 30 mins to get through the firmware updates, realizing that I had to add the Wifi network via the phone app and not via Garmin Express on my Mac to actually get Spotify to connect in the first place. BUT...then I get stuck as many other users on the stage of clicking a playlist and nothing, absolutely nothing happens after that. I will keep trying for a few more hours, but unless this gets fixed I will return the watch and yet again go back the the land of dreaming about being able to run with a watch that does Spotify offline, BT headphones and has golf courses. It doesn't help that the official replies are sort of accusing everybody to not follow the instructions. Acknowledge there are issues instead and start working on them.

Didn't work initially but seems to work fine now for my VA3.... Excellent work.

I noticed that when I use the other functions of my Garmin Felix 5 plus like opening the run app, the music playback becomes choppy.i already upgraded to the latest firmware and Spotify version

Followed the instructions (https://bit.ly/2U2KDI3) for Spotify on my new VA3M, and it's been very hit or miss. As others have noted: sometimes (rarely) it will download a playlist as it's supposed to, sometimes it will just sit there once selecting a playlist (and drain the battery extremely fast with a hard reset needed to return to normal), and sometimes it just waits at the "Searching for Wi-Fi Network" screen. Usually I have to swipe back and forth between the playlist screen at the "Searching for Wi-Fi Network" screen, and eventually the syncing will happen. Very inconsistent. Hopefully the developers can improve this with future patches soon.

Finally. The sync is a big battery drain, but that is a function of the wifi of the device, not specific to spotify. On the plus side, it is much easier and quicker to add music. And it's nice to be able to manage it with my phone instead of having to connect to a computer. App works great!

Having the same issues as many users. I can see my playlist, but pressing them to download does nothing. Battery drained from 100% to 33% in about an hour. Been trying to get this to work since last night. Disappointing.

Lite krångligt att synca spellistor men när man väl hittat rätt så funkar det bra. Man ska inte gå via telefonen utan via inställningarna i klockan. Vivoactive 3 Music. Do not click manage music in Connect on your phone. Go to settings-music-music providers-spotify on your vivoactive 3 music device to sync.

App version: 1.3.8 Been trying to add music to VA3 all morning with no success. I can see my Spotify playlists on VA3 but clicking 'Add' does nothing. Have confirmed that VA3 has latest firmware, tried to uninstalling and reinstalling Spotify app, restarted VA3 a few times and even sat beside our wifi router, nothing makes the app actually download music. After months of waiting (and the prime reason I chose the VA3) I can only hope the developers release a version that actually works soon.

Installed Spotify on my VA3. When starting to sync WiFi connection takes forever and then stays on 0%. Drained the battery from 100% to 15% overnight. Uninstalling is not possible (error message). Quit disappointing.

There is no way to actually sync your playlists to the vívoactive 3. I follow Garmin directions to "swipe back until you see 'sync music'" but it's never there.

It seems to be working good. Nice work, developers!
