Does the Rider 550 Support Music Playback

Daboo

Hi, all! I'm considering buying a Rider 550. One thing I found nice at times on long rides, was to listen to MP3 files on my Garmin 595. Is there a way to playback music on the Rider 550?

In case you're wondering, my Garmin 595 dropped off the bike somewhere on the way home last night. So it is replacement time.

No, but you can use your Phone and a supported two channel Bluetooth headset to play music.
Using the Phone Icon on your Rider you can use the Rider and Siri or Google now as a remote to play music.

Thank you for your help. I'll look into what Siri and Google Now will do for this.
