Doesn't send any data to Canvas, at least as of June '15 on 5.0.1

Y70%
by Y####:

Canvas and it's plugins were my favorite app on my original Kickstarter Pebble. Second to none. I upgraded to Pebble Time Round and NO SUPPORT! I'm told none is coming. If you want to support Pebble lovers, support the latest and greatest. Epic fail.

Would love if you added more app support. Like mortplayer for audio books. Works good for Google music though.

I'd love to be able to add what track number is playing to my watch face, that would be a great update!

Everything this guy makes is gold. My custom watchface with album art and now playing will never NOT be my default.

Z70%
by Z####:

I'm a huge fan of the canvas app, but the only thing that erks me is that this has no function with spotify! I hate Google play music and I love my spotify.

V70%
by V####:

Installed this with his Canvas app (which by the way is brilliant), and my watch is telling me what music is playing, with album art. (Art is working for me. Probably depends on the tags on the mp3.) And you can modify it to display what you want. I added the date and album title to the screen and had it running on my watch within 5 minutes of installing Canvas and this plugin. Did I mention that this is Brilliant?

Seems to work ok except for album art not showing up. I'm using google's Play Music app.

Z70%
by Z####:

I'm using Google play music and don't get any art. The rest of the app is wonderful.

S70%
by S####:

worked like a charm and now stopped :(

F70%
by F####:

I wish I could share the pleasure of having good things to say, but before the plugin all of a sudden claimed not to be installed it would not update the song playing. Real bummer because this would've completed my custom Canvas.

Z70%
by Z####:

I was hoping this plug in would work with Spotify with the next update. I will rate it 5 star if it is able to.

W70%
by W####:

An excellent tool to design your own Pebble watchfaces best of the best. Only shortcoming is the designed watchfaces need to run inside the canvas watchface and can be a real battery guzzler. Be prepared to charge your Pebble on a nightly basis.

Z70%
by Z####:

Bit fiddly to get working, but once you have read the help file, all seems to work well.

I70%
by I####:

It was working great for a while, but then it stops functioning and says the plugin is missing. When I try to reset the plugin in Canvas it only gives me the option of Augmented Smart Watch Pro.

by Z####:

Works perfectly, very feature rich! Surprised its free, would gladly pay for this.

T70%
by T####:

I'm glad this is finally working =) Album art still doesn't work though (Poweramp, Google Music) Recently, Canvas was complaining that the plugin wasn't installed, but a reinstall of this fixed that. I'd love Spotify support!

by Z####:

awesome app. lets you make your own watch face with an amazing amount of options. would be 5 stars if I had other weather options such as yahoo or Google. the one it gives you is not very accurate.

This doesn't show any album art with Google Play. Bummer!

Not sure why

All fixed for Android 4.3 with last update, working great!

Z70%
by Z####:

I like the Canvas app quite a bit, but I have a problem with this plugin. If I try to use the plugin for more than one layer, the text reads as "Plugin missing" on layers created after the first layer to use the plugin (that is to say that only one layer using the plugin shows the intended data).
