Playing music through the Android App

[SunsetRunner]

Is it possible to play music when using the Android app to track a run like you can on iOs?

I like to track my run using the app instead of my Charge2 as I have to take my phone with me anyway for the GPS (which doesn't always keep connected to my watch) and I can get my km markers.

Unfortunately, if I listen to music on a different app it keeps playing over the km marker and I can't hear it.

I know you can play music through the iOs app as my friend does but we can't find the controls on my Android app.

Please can someone point me in the right direction.

thanks,

Hello @SunsetRunner, good to see you again. In this case it depend of the tracker, since you are using a Charge 2 the feature of music control is not supported, so the only workaround is like you mentioned on your post. Start tracking your exercise and in the background play the music app you want to use.

However there is not a direct integration that lower the volume of the music with the voice cues from the app.

Hope this information helps. See you until the next time.

Thank you for the reply @RobertoME how come the ability to play music through the app is on iOs but not Android? I know you can on Apple as my friend does!
