Can I seek music tracks on the Versa?

[Prasad1337]

Is it possible? I don't seem to be able to forward or rewind tracks ... or am I just missing something here?

It's great to see you around @Prasad1337.

Could you please be more specific about what would you like to do from your Versa? You want an option to search for music from the watch? If this is the case, no, you can't search music from it. I took the liberty and searched for a request like this but didn't find any, feel free to visit our feature suggestions board and share your ideas.

Now if you are having issues with the music from your Versa, I recommend taking a look at the following articles:

• How do I listen to music and podcasts on my Fitbit watch?
• How do I control music with my Fitbit device?

Hope to hear from you soon.

Maybe I don't understand your question but, if I open the Music app and touch on the Playlist, I see a list of my songs in that playlist.  I can slide up and down thru it and, if I touch a particular song, it will start playing (you need your headphones on and connected).  While the music is playing, or if I choose to pause it, I can use the left button to go back and scroll through my playlist.  If I touch a different song, that one starts to play.  While a song is playing, if I touch the two back facing triangles the song will start over from the beginning.  The forward facing two triangles will advance to the next song.  Does this solve your problem?

I know what you are talking about...you want to be able to seek in a track.

This doesn't seem to be possible with the current controls from what I can see...

For example I have lots of running mixes that go for about an hour and sometimes I want to jump straight into the half way point in the mix if I am only running for half an hour.

If it's possible at all it's not obvious....if it's not possible I'd like to make a feature request.

That's exactly my problem! I have only hour+ long mixes 😄 And I really wish something as fundamental as this was available, even if the UI were tiny.

Yes they need to add it! I’m a dance instructor and I love my Fitbit, but I am looking at an Apple Watch because I can’t seem to find a way to fast forward or rewind tracks. And the whole point of me getting a watch was so I could control music from anywhere in the room while I’m teaching. I would love this feature!

Absolutely OK. Works perfectly, if only there were clearer instructions provided in the user guide, or have I missed them?

@kcronin  "While the music is playing, or if I choose to pause it, I can use the left button to go back and scroll through my playlist.  If I touch a different song, that one starts to play." --- Ahhh, thanks for that tip!!!! I already wondered if it was possible to get back into my playlist

@Haward  The Music Controls on the Versa are sorta an Easter Egg reserved for only those willing to hunt for it and fortunate to find it!

Hello!

My versa only play the first song of the list! I can see all the songs, but If I choose song number 2/3/4 etc... the song name appears on the watch, but the song that he plays is the first of the list.

The watch only plays the first song of the list.

The music controls works fine!

But the watch only plays song nunber 1.

All the songs are in the same format (mp3).

I only find something like this on the ionic community, and someone said that the restart will solve the problem.

But I try the restart/shutdown and it don't solve the problem. Why is this happening?

I can't find answers! The manual/help page don't have this problem.

Thanks.
