How to start using the Spotify app on Fitbit Charge 4 and Fitbit Smartwatches:
- First make sure the app is installed on your Fitbit watch or tracker and you have connected your Spotify Premium account. Don’t have a Spotify Premium account? Try Premium for free.¹
- In the Fitbit app, tap the Today tab > your profile picture > your device image > Apps.
- Tap the gear icon next to Spotify.
- Tap Log In and follow the on-screen instructions to log in to your Spotify Premium account.
- Open the Spotify app on your phone and begin playing music or a podcast.
(Note that the Spotify app on your smartwatch and tracker don’t support playing music offline. This means that your paired phone must be connected to the internet and remain nearby with the Fitbit app running in the background.)
The only options I can see under playlists on the gear fit Spotify app are: save, volume, shuffle and repeat. I press save but don't know if that's downloaded. Also, when I disconnect from WiFi and Bluetooth the Spotify app no longer works so I can't access the offline playlists (which makes me think the save button hasn't actually downloaded it). Spotify on the Gear does not yet support Spotify Connect. This is a major disappointment since my headphones are always paired with my phone or my computer, NOT my watch. In order to use the Spotify app, you must use Bluetooth headphones paired to the watch. Media controls on this watch are also a disappointment. I expected a dedicated widget.
- Open the Spotify app on your watch and tracker to then control playback on-the-go.
- Tap the devices icon to switch between devices. To see a device, you must have the Spotify app open on that device and be logged in to your account. Up to 8 devices are listed.
Make the most of Spotify on your Fitbit watch and tracker:
Connect anytime to Bluetooth-enabled devices. First, open the Spotify app on your phone, laptop, or tablet, then…
Use the controls. This one’s pretty self-explanatory, but you can do so byhitting play, pause, skipping forward on songs, and skipping back songs.*
Save tracks. Tap the heart to Like (💚) your fave tunes and save them to your library of “Liked Songs.”

Put your music on shuffle. Tap the shuffle icon to switch up the order your tracks play in.
With the Spotify Connect feature, you can select which device you want to play Spotify on. There are hundreds of Spotify Connect devices including your phone, laptop, TV, PlayStation, Google Home, Amazon Echo, smart speakers and wireless speakers (must be a Connect-enabled speaker), and more.**
Select Recently Played playlists. Change from your favorite playlist to a Recently Played podcast and then back again. Not feeling particularly motivated or inspired by your music choices? Fans of Spotify’s “Discover Weekly” and “Release Radar” playlists should know that the algorithm won’t fail you when it comes to these fresh tunes, delivered to your fave streaming service on a weekly basis.
Stumped on what to listen to? You can also take your pick from Spotify’s popular selection of curated Workout playlists. Simply select the Workouts playlist on your watch. Here you’ll be able to choose from a range of playlists to get you in the zone, from the “Motivation Mix” to “Throwback Workout” and more. Alternately, you can pick according to the kind of workout you’ll be doing, with plenty of power mixes carefully curated for yogis to runners and cardio lovers alike.
