Looking for music to play on the Android App

[mbavaro]

Hey all.  I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy 6.  I'm looking for music to play when using the exercise tracker while I run.  On my iphone, the music I had on my itunes would show up.  On the Samsung, I'm using Google Play and have downloaded music to the phone, but it's not syncing to the Fitbit app.  

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hello my friend @mbavaro, welcome aboard ! Keep in mind that your Fitbit Blaza and Fitbit Surge are able to enable Music Control with the app. 

Note the following information about music control.

• Fitbit trackers use the AVRCP Bluetooth profile. If your music streaming app doesn't support AVRCP, music control won't work with your Fitbit tracker.
• If a compatible music streaming app doesn't broadcast track information, song titles won’t appear on your tracker's screen. However if the music app supports AVRCP, you'll still be able to pause and skip songs even when you can’t see the title.
• Fitbit Blaze is compatible with Windows mobile devices for music control but Fitbit Surge is not. Note that song titles never appear if you’re using a Windows mobile device.

BLAZE

If you have a compatible iOS mobile device running iOS 8 or above, music control will automatically work after you set up your Blaze.

If you have a compatible Android or Windows 10 mobile device:

1. On your Fitbit Blaze:
   1. Swipe to Settings.
   2. Scroll to Bluetooth Classic.
   3. Tap the Bluetooth Classic option until the setting is Pair.
2. On your mobile device:
   1. Navigate to the Bluetooth Setting screen where paired devices are listed. Your mobile device should be scanning for devices.
   2. When “Blaze Classic” is shown as an available device, select it.
   3. Wait for a message displaying a six-digit number.
3. Perform the following two steps in close succession:
   1. When the same six-digit number appears on your Blaze, tap “Yes” on your tracker.
   2. On your mobile device, select Pair.

SURGE

1. On your Surge:
   1. Display the Menu, then swipe to Settings.
   2. Scroll to Bluetooth Classic.
   3. If the setting is Off or On, press the Select button until the setting is Pair.
2. On your mobile device:
   1. Go to Settings > Bluetooth.
   2. Make sure your device is discoverable and is scanning for devices.
   3. When “Surge (Classic)” appears as an available device, select it.
   4. Wait for a message showing a six-digit number.
3. Perform the following two steps in close succession:
   1. When the same six-digit number appears on your Surge, press the Action button (lower right) to confirm the pairing.
   2. On your mobile device, select Pair.

Hope this helps!
