I have everything for listening to music set up but to control the audio on my phone, but my watch keeps on telling me that my phone is not connected. Help, please.

I have solved my issue. In the Ionic, in Settings -> Bluetooth -> Bluetooth Classic I had it at On but really I needed to have it in Pair. Once in that mode I went to my (Android) phone's bluetooth menu and saw a new Ionic (Classic) to connect to. Once I did that, Bluetooth Classic went to On. I can now control my phone's media like Spotify and Pocket Casts directly from the Ionic which is nice. Definitely not the most intuitive setup but it works.

I'm having the same problem when I set audio source to Phone. I can play offline Pandora from the ionic but I can't use media controls for my phone.
