First, sorry for my english...
Using Media Controller to listen to music, I'm looking for a way for the change of song (next song, previous, pause...), a notification will be sent to the gear and it shows multimedia control to let use media controlls.
I tried with music popup app that show a notification on the screen of the pone instead the phone is with the screen off and combination with ATN Manager (the application of our colleague sepiroth887 enable it to send notifications to the gear) but does not work.
Anybody thinks of a way to do it?
Thanks

Well, more than music popup works on the Gear, I was thinking in use the popup to create a rule with tasker o automatelt for every time there is a new song, the popup actÃvate the media controller on gear.
With music popup app on the gear (if it works, I'll try), only have info song, but no media controllers.
Thanks for your reply!!
I have the Gear and SN3. I want to be jogging and advance the next Pandora song from the Gear if possible...
I downloaded Media Remote

But this just does as the media controller on the device and does not advance Pandora...
Anyone able to do this?

I have not tried it with Pandora, but when I play Google Play Music on my Note 3 and use Media Controller on my Gear it allows me to skip tracks. Also I used Media Controller with Doggcatcher on my Note 3. The trick for me was to load those up on the phone first and then Media Controller seems to use whatever the active app is. Not sure if it would work with Pandora but I'm guessing it would be the same.
I just tried the Pandora app with the Media controller and it works just fine.

Well I did but accidentally and dont know the combination yet how I did it. So if I have Pandora open and then open MC on Gear when I hit forward it opens my default app "Player Pro" and pauses Pandora...
Somehow I end up with PlayPro showing paused in notification area and now Pandora advances... How dont know how I got there...
I can't seem to figure out how to control music playing on my phone from my watch (using Google Music phone app). Is something supposed to pop up when I play music on my phone? I don't see an "app" on the watch that controls this. Note that I'm using a Note 3.
What am I missing?

You get card of current song and if u swipe to left u can advance and swipe to right one more time to stop I believe.

Actually I figured this out. You have to start the playback on the phone first. Then you get a notification that let's you pause / play, Swipe to the left and you next and once more to the left you get previous, but that is the extent of the stock music control. This worked with EVERY music player I have, not just Google stock Music player.
You can also control volume if you get the Wear Volume app - it appears as an additional notification card under the main music notification. And here is also something that is WAY cool - if you download musiXmatch app, you can scroll down and choose to display scrolling LYRICS to the current song!! I can't get BOTH volume AND lyrics to work at the same time however. Note the Volume works with any music app you choose in it's settings. However, musiXmatch only works with Google Play Music player.
There are also some voice controls to start playback. Such as OK Google, play me some music (that will start an "I'm feeling lucky" shuffle). OK Google, Play Some *artist name* . there are some others, but I use those two often.
Not sure if it matters, but this is on an HTC One M7, stock 4.4.2 Sense 6, Google Play Music.
I've just finished developing my Wear Music Controller app to solve this problem for me:

You can play/pause/next/prev/stop/vol-up/vol-down from your watch! Works with all music apps. Let me know what you think!
Hi all,
I have not been able to find any way to control the Google Music or any other application from the watch. I was expecting not being able only to launch the music application from it, but also to control the volume or to switch the song.
I have found in Google Play Store applications like this (trial and then allow you to purchase the license):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.barkside.music
If there is no native way to do this, i really cannot understand as i see this one of the most logical applications to use from the watch.
Cheers.
You can play, pause, skip forward and back tracks with the Google Play Music app and Android Wear directly.
When playing music it should automatically display on the watch.
If not, check and make sure you haven't muted the app.
Music Boss works for most players.

I haven't muted the application. The strange thing is that just in the moment i hit the play button from the phone (Sony Xperia Z3 with Android KitKat 4.4.4) the notification for the music appears, but hides immediately. Maybe its an issue from my phone.
Thank you very much for the quick answer .

Thank you, i will try to continue searching the reason why the Google Music default notification disappears immediately, but if not, i may try Music Boss.

I'm trying to determine the benefit of Music Boss. I have used it with the 3 main audio apps I tend to use, all of which notify to my watch (TuneIn Pro, Sirius, and Google Play Music). They are set up in Music Boss as well. So when any of them are playing, I have two different cards - one for the app itself and one for Music Boss. I can't seem to see how Music Boss gives offers anything beyond the separate apps, other than a common interface. Can anyone with more experience using this app tell me what i'm missing? Thanks!
same here, I found that android wear supports quite a few music apps out-of-the-box.
like vanilla music - they havent released a wear-related update afaik, but when I play music with the app it shows up as a card on my phone with play-pause and I can swipe into a next-previous-vol up-vol down screen
Sony Walkman, Google Music and Spotify works on my watch. No need for Music Boss or anything. Phone is Z2.

I finally found the problem. Sony Xperia has a free application called SmartKey:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonymobile.extras.liveware.extension.smartkey
With this application it is possible to assign extra functions to the button to answer calls in the headphones.
Anyway, this application was interfering with the SmartWatch option to show the controls in the watch graphic interface. Removing it or disabling it solves the problem.
Thank you very much for the help .
Hi.
I recently bought a Galaxy Gear sm-v700, and it mostly does what I want. The only feature I'm missing is being able to pick songs from a playlist in Media Controls (well, apart from it not having an alarm clock, which is weird..).
I can change to the next track or increase or decrease the volume. But I would love to be able to see my playlist or folder listed on my watch, even though the music is on my phone.
I've sideloaded a few apps into the watch, so I know how that works, but I can't for the life of me find an app that lets me control music playlists from one android device to another.
Anyone able to point me in the right direction? It would be massively appreciated!
Thanks.
