2 years later - and this beats anything in the Garmin instruction booklet. The lack of information and broken links had me almost ready to return this thing first thing tomorrow. Thank you for this gem!

It's not a silly video at all. Thank you for sharing. I had been searching for this type of video for a long time before I buy a Garmin watch with music. Thank you!

It isnt silly when alot of people request these things, it's just that people need assurance sometimes, you're a star for this, thanks cap!

Finally someone explains this, you would not believe how hard was to find this at least from my end, big shout for this video ❤❤❤

Not pointless video AT ALL - I was looking for someone to tell me EXACTLY what you said in this video and show me how the connection is done and assure I can listen to Spotify on my run without brginging my phone with me!! THANK YOU!!

Actually looking forward in buying a Garmin watch for my runs and music is very important, so this was really helpful. Thanks a bunch

Man you dont know how helpful your video is! Thx a lot for taking it step by step, great guide, havent seen a clearer explanation anywhere!

Hey Javier. Some earbuds have their "master" bud on the left or the right earbud and that cannot be changed. Some will change automatically. That bud is used for the Bluetooth transmission. So, if your watch is on your left wrist and the master bud is in your right ear, the audio might cut out or have inferior quality since it's trying to transmit through your body. I had the same issue until I switched the wrist used to wear my Garmin watch. Now it's perfect, regardless of where I'm holding my hands. Good luck.🙂
