Media controls while exercising?
-
I have Media on, can control the Media from my phone on my watch when I am not using an excercise but can not figure out how to access the Media controls while excercising?
Reading the User Manual, “To access the media controls widget, press the lower button from watch face or, during an
exercise, press the middle button until the media control widget is shown.” This did not work for me. Pressing the middle button cycled through the various screens associated with the exercise but the Media was not an option. Long press and hold did nothing. Trying to set up a Custom Exercise, Media was not an option to include.
What am I missing? -
@Snow-and-Rock You can configure whether media controls show during an activity in the activity settings on your watch before you start an activity or from the activity control panel (on your watch) once an activity has started. Enable the media controls and you will gain a new activity ‘page’ where you can control volume, skip forward and back, pause and see info on the current track.

@far-blue Boom! It was under Training setting, thank you for pointing me in the right direction!
That was under 10 minutes from my initial question, great community! Out for a run now able to control my podcasts from my wrist.
