Now playing not showing on my watch; I no longer have the automatic showing of “now playing” on my watch series 7. What gives? Used to work like a charm. Tried to configure in watch app, but no dice (dum, duh).
The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

Restart your iPhone - Apple Support
If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.

I appreciate the help, but I tried this and it didn't fix the problem. My watch is a Series 8, not the Series 7 of the OP, but the symptoms are the same, Now Playing only displays "Not Playing".
"Now playing" not showing on my watch for nuthin; series 7. What gives? Used ta work...
