I don't have the music icon in the iwatch

Hello!

I've installed the app music on my phone and I've downloaded music and synced it to my iPhone, but when I want to play it without using the phone I can't because The music icon doesn't appear and I don't have any other switch to put it on in the music settings from the iPhone. Could you please help me? I've already deleted the music app and reinstalled it. I'd really appreciate your support. Thanks!

Hi

The following steps may help:

If you have not yet done so, update your iPhone and Apple Watch to the latest software, starting with your iPhone:

Close certain apps and restart both your iPhone and your Apple Watch:

Close the Watch app and Music app (if open) on your iPhone:
- Double-click the Home button, then swipe up on each app preview to close the apps.
Turn both devices off together, then restart your iPhone first:
- Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
- Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support

If the issue persists, then it may help to unpair and re-pair your Apple Watch:

The Watch app on your iPhone takes a backup of your watch automatically when unpairing via the app.
Initially choose to Restore from Backup during set up (most data and settings will be restored, with some exceptions, such as Apple Pay cards, passcode).
If the issue persists, consider instead unpairing and setting it up as a new watch.
