Choosing a track in a music player on the watch, to play on my S7 - Samsung Gear S3

Is there a way to choose a song that's in my phone's media library to play on the phone? I'm using Poweramp, but wouldn't mind moving to Samsung music or Google Play music if they have Tizen apps.

I don't know if this works with Poweramp, but you can use pre-installed mp3-player app on your Gear to control your music on your phone. At least with Google play music.
Inside mp3-player app you can choose the source with the icon on the top right.

[Q] MusicPlayer - Samsung or Google/Android?

There's two apps for playing music: Music Player and Play Music. I know that Play Music is a Google thing. Is Music Player a standard android app or is it only available on Samsung products?
I'm asking because I'm trying to backup playlists using an app called Playlist Backup. For some reason, Music Player appears to get things in reverse order when Playlist Backup saves and restores the playlists. I'd like to ask the developer for a "feature" that would reverse the order but I don't know if he/she would have access to Music Player. I also don't know if its a Music Player or Playlist Backup "problem".
Thanks

Music Player is Samsung's default music app. I don't think Android has a default music app now that I think about it...You can also control Music Player with voice commands if you enable it in the S Voice settings.

[Q] where is downloaded music from Google play?

Ok so the shine is already wearing off the new update that gives Australia the option to purchase music from Google play, I've just bought an album and downloaded it and I wanted to play it in Poweramp but can't find it? Can anyone tell me why
It will be played and stored within Google play music.

But what if I don't want to play it through Google Music app I did just purchase the album I should be able to play it through what ever i like
I believe it is because the files aren't actually downloaded. You stream them from the cloud using the google music player application.

If you read the instructions some where it gives you the option to download as opposed to stream .Either for your uploads or paid for music .

So I contacted google about this, yes there is an option to download through the apo or through your pc using music manager (googles answer to itunes I guess).
If you download directly from within the app on your device you can only play it through google music.
If you download it via your pc I usjng music manager you can side load it and play it though whatever you want ie poweramp.
Quite frankly I dont see why google have to make it so difficult and just allow us to download it directly to our Devices and play it how we want for gods sake

I have the same problem. I can launch the "Play Music" app but I still have to touch the play button which is quite a PITA.
Strangely enough I don't remember I had this problem before I rooted my phone. When I asked NFC to task Media -> Play, it played the songs from my Google Play Music app.

Xperia Music App and Spotify...

Hi I know xperia music app is integrated with spotify. And I have a spotify account. It says you can control the spotify through music app but when I click the spotify icon on the music app. Its opening the spotify app and I can't see any spotify music on my music app. Any solutions please?

There is none. If I remember correctly, Sony stated they would not be integrating Spotify in the music app like Music Unlimited was with Walkman. It's simply a gateway to opening the Spotify app. I don't like it either but it looks like all we're going to get.

Google Play Music App?

So now that Samsung is supposed to be making Google Play Music the default music app in their phones and tablets, think there will be a way to stream music like Spotify directly to the watch? I invest heavily in YouTube Red and GPM and don't want to have to switch back to Spotify...
