I have 4 apps set to NOT send notifications to Moto but they still come through. Rebooted phone and Moto but they still come through. Any suggestions?? There is an option for blocking the notifications in the android wear app but does not seem to be working.
The 4 are:
Google play music
You tube
Apollo music player
Pandora
I don't want to see them or control them as they block the image of home screen on the Moto. The only way to stop them is turning off bluetooth on the phone settings.

Hello,
I am a newcomer in the world of smartwatches. So I've buyed a smartwatch 3 and I struggle to find how to control Play Music on my watch.
When I launch music on my phone, controls are not showing up on my watch. And on my watch when I go to Google Music I can just download musics but not play remotely. And I don't want to download musics because I have a lot of tracks on my phone and I cannot choose which one synchronise on my watch.
I forgot to mention that I'm running lollipop preview, I maybe it is because of that...

Hello,
When you have a track playing on the phone tap the watch face then scroll up from the bottom the track will be displayed then scroll from right to left then the volume controls and track skip will be on the watch screen.
Thanks but it's not working. Maybe due to the lollipop preview version on my phone...

I'm having the same problem on lollipop with two different installs of KNX01V. Playback fro the watch works great, but when music is playing on the phone, no card shows up on the watch. As soon as the phone is paused (with the phone notification still present), the card shows up on the watch. If I then hit play on either the watch or the phone, the card on the watch disappears. Going to try a new build of lollipop soon.
Play Music v5.7.1717Q.1530520
^^ same for me on nexus 5 eev purview
Can someone one kitkat check this?

I am running Lollipop too. Music cards don't seem to show when music playback is triggered from the phone. However I do get the name of the current track playing if I tap the screen and navigate back to the watch face, but it disappears (so the phone is sending the information).
As far as I can tell Android Wear currently only supports Google Play Music in the following ways....
Open The Play Music app, this plays back music synced to the watch. This is a bit crap because there is no real control over what is synced, this does result in cards being shown.
Say "OK Google Play Music", this launches Play Music on the phone and plays back tracks at random. This also results in the cards being shown.
It seems Play Music is still a bit raw on Android Wear at the moment, hopefully Google will add the ability to sync specific playlists or albums just to the watch rather than randomly selecting from those that have been synced to the phone.

That's indeed the behavior I can observe on my watch.
I hope you're right and Google will allow to select tracks to synchronize in a future update because actually this is unusable for me as I have tons of GB stored on my phone.
The thing is android wear shows cards/notifications that are not ongoing on the phone, when you pause music - notification is not ongoing and wear shows it
I finally works well with official Lollipop and last version of Android Wear : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-wear/

Yeah, this version seems to work perfectly now. This will be great for skipping tracks whilst driving.
Using the Android Wear app on my phone, I have blocked all of my audio-playing apps (Google Music, PowerAmp, BeyondPod, etc.) and rebooted my watch. However, when playing music, I still get popups about what is playing on my phone. How can I get rid of all popups on my watch which are related to playing audio?
UPDATE: Google says:
When you listen to music on your phone, you’ll always see the music card with options to pause and play. You can’t turn this card off.
Dear Google, that sux.
I have a Moto360 that until last week, played music on the watch via Google Play. However, about a week ago, playing music on the watch failed (error below) and the storage appeared to be clear
THE ERROR: When I choose Google Play music and 'Play on watch', a green circle spins a while, then watch displays a message "Phone is disconnected. Reconnect to download tracks."
This while the watch shows 'Connected' in the Android Wear watch app on the phone, there is no little 'cloud' symbol on the watch face and *all other watch functions operate perfectly.* For instance I can control music and my podcast app on my phone form the watch, it can send SMS messages etc.
I have done a factory re-set on the watch and no change.
Storage shows 2.5 GB clear. Yes, I have downloaded songs on my phone (it worked for quite a while after all).
Anyone come across this message before?
Watch Software: Android wear v. 1.3.0.2166028 and Android version 5.1.1

I am also having this exact issue.
I've tried rolling back the music app, toggling the wear settings inside of the music app, hard resetting the watch.

Moto 360
Same issue. Seems to occurred when Google Play and Play Services updated last month. Note: Both have had several updates do not know which one screwed it up on my watch.
same here - very frustrating!
Seemingly completely randomly, my touch screen will stop responding to input. I know that it's not the actual touch screen as the circle from "Show Touches" in developer options shows up, but nothing responds to touch. I'm forced to hold the button until the watch reboots until I can do anything on it. Has anyone else had this issue?
