    Hi

     

    When listening to music on Apple Watch, you can choose between two different sources:

    - Music from your iPhone;

    - A playlist that has been synced to your watch.

     

    Follow the instructions here to sync a playlist and listen to music on your watch:

    Hi Jonathan,

     

    Thanks for the reply, but I do not have any music synced to my watch and I have it set to listen to my phone!

    Thats why I am confused that I cannot see everything that is on my phone!

    It may help to restart both your iPhone and your watch. Turn both devices off first, then restart your iPhone before restarting your watch:

    - To turn your watch off: press and hold the side button until you see the Power Off slider; drag it to turn off;

    - To turn it on: press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

    Thanks again for the reply, this didnt seem to work either but i have just solved it!!

    I only used to use my music on my watch via "glances" so swiped up and started using the music from there!

    I just tried going into music via the main home layout on the watch and it immediately started a sync, after a few seconds all the missing ablums appeared.

     

    Thanks
