Getting Started
Three things, about a minute: create a free account, link your watch with a 6-digit code, and pick your subjects. No credit card—the free plan is the real product, not a trial.
Start in 3 steps
- Create your free account at edujog.com and install EduJog from the Garmin Connect IQ Store.
- Activate your watch — the app shows a 6-digit code, you type it in on the website.
- Pick your subjects, sync, press play. You choose courses on the website; the watch downloads them and plays them on your next run.
Step-by-step screenshots for each of these are in the On Your Garmin section below.
What the free account gives you
Everything below is included at no cost. The account is also what keeps watch and website in step, which is why the app asks you to activate before it downloads anything:
- The first 4 courses of every curriculum, in full — more than half of everything we publish, and six curricula from start to finish.
- Quizzes to test yourself after each episode.
- A learning-analytics dashboard that tracks your progress.
- The Playlist Builder to mix in your own podcasts.
- Your progress synced between the watch and the website.
Each of those is walked through with screenshots further down, under Free Account & Premium.
On Your Garmin
Here's the full flow on the watch, from installing the app to listening. The look may differ slightly depending on your device.
-
1. Install the App
Download the EduJog app from the Garmin Connect IQ Store. To open it, press and hold the watch's down button for two seconds (set EduJog as your music provider first if you use another one).
-
2. Activate Your Watch
Open the app and choose Activate Device. It is the first thing the menu offers before your watch is linked—the app needs an account to know what to download and where to send your progress.
Activate Device in the EduJog app The watch displays a 6-digit code. Leave this screen open—you'll type the code into the website in the next step.
The 6-digit code shown on your watch -
3. Enter the Code at edujog.com
Open edujog.com/garmin in your browser while logged in (there's also a link in the My EduJog menu, top-right) and enter the code from your watch.
Enter the code at edujog.com/garmin The watch confirms as soon as the code is accepted, and your first sync begins on its own.
Activation successful — device connected -
4. Pick Your Subjects on the Website
Your playlist is built from the courses you subscribe to, and you choose those on edujog.com: open a learning area to see its curricula, open a curriculum to see its individual courses, and subscribe to exactly the ones you want.
Subscribe to courses at edujog.com This used to be a picker on the watch. The website does it better—you can see what a course covers before you commit to it, and change your mind without scrolling a watch menu. Whatever you pick shows up on the watch at the next sync. If you sync before choosing anything, we start you off with a course so your first run isn't silent.
-
5. Sync & Listen
From the main menu, choose Sync. The watch connects over WiFi and downloads your episodes; this takes a few minutes the first time.
Select Sync from the main menu When the sync finishes, open Play—or browse the downloaded episodes and pick one yourself.
Play or browse your EduJog playlist Content by plan: a free account covers the first 4 courses of every curriculum — more than half of everything we publish. Premium unlocks every course. Garmin sync—EduJog content and your own podcasts—is unlimited on every plan.
6. Play, Then Sync Back Your Progress
Open Play from the main menu to start the next episode, or browse the list to pick a specific one.
Playback works like any other music app on the watch—skip forward, go back, adjust the volume from the usual controls.
After your workout, run Sync again to send your listening progress back to your account—we recommend doing this after each session. Some Garmin devices also sync automatically while charging.
Free Account & Premium
A free account is all you need: it covers the first 4 courses of every curriculum, the quizzes, the Playlist Builder and unlimited syncs. Premium opens the rest of the library.
| What you get | Free account | Premium |
|---|---|---|
| EduJog courses per curriculum | First 4 courses | Every course |
| Garmin sync (EduJog + your podcasts) | Unlimited | Unlimited |

| Progress synced across watch & web | ✓ | ✓ |
No credit card is required for a free account. See pricing for Premium details.
Choose courses on the web
The website is where you decide what to learn: open a learning area to see its curricula, open a curriculum to see its individual courses, and subscribe to exactly the ones you want. You can see what a course covers before committing to it, and whatever you pick shows up on your watch at the next sync.
Test yourself with quizzes
Every episode has a matching quiz. Answering questions after a run is what turns something you heard into something you remember—and each correct answer earns XP that feeds your learning score.
Track your progress
Your dashboard collects listening and quiz results into one picture: minutes this week, your current streak, quiz accuracy, how far you've got in each course, and which topics have faded enough to be worth revisiting.
Listen on the web too
You don't need the watch to listen. The same playlist plays in the browser, and your position carries over—start an episode at your desk, finish it on your next run.
Playlist Builder
With a free account, the Playlist Builder lets you control exactly what goes into your listening queue: mix EduJog courses with your own podcast feeds and decide the order and how many episodes of each to include. The same combined playlist is used on the website and when you sync to your Garmin device.
-
1. Understand Segments
Your playlist is built from segments, in order from top to bottom:
- EduJog learning areas — One block that pulls episodes from the courses tied to your learning areas. You can change how many EduJog episodes appear in that block.
- Podcast segments — Each is one RSS feed (e.g. a news podcast or any podcast you add by URL). You can have multiple podcast segments, each with its own settings.
Use the up/down arrows next to each segment to change the play order. The segment at the top is what you hear first.
Your segments, in play order -
2. Edit a Podcast Segment
Click the Edit (gear) button on a podcast segment to expand its options:
- Episodes — How many episodes from that feed to include (e.g. 5 or 10).
- Order — Newest first or oldest first. For news podcasts, newest first is usually what you want.
- Replace incomplete with newer episodes — For daily or news-style podcasts: if you haven’t finished an episode and a newer one is available, the playlist will prefer the newer one instead of keeping the half-played one. Turn this on so your queue stays up to date.
- Continue into older episodes — When the newest window is exhausted, fill from older episodes. Useful for feeds you listen to regularly.
Episode count and order options Two more buttons sit alongside the gear. Details (list) opens the feed's episodes, so you can see exactly what is queued up and refresh the feed if the podcast has published something new.
Details shows that feed’s episodes The X button removes that feed from your playlist only; the feed stays in “Other podcasts” so you can add it again later.
-
3. Add Your Own Podcasts
Below the segments list you’ll see Other podcasts: feeds you’ve added by URL but haven’t put in the playlist yet. Think of it as your library—a feed can sit here without affecting what you hear.
Feeds waiting to be added to your playlist Click Add podcast and paste the feed’s RSS URL. Most podcast websites link theirs somewhere on the page; any standard RSS feed works.
Paste the feed’s RSS URL Once the feed appears under “Other podcasts”, press the + button to promote it to a segment—then edit that segment to set how many episodes and the order. Use Delete (bin) only if you want to remove the feed entirely.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes—a free one. The watch app downloads episodes for your account, so it asks you to activate first: a 6-digit code shown on the watch, typed in at edujog.com. The account is free and needs no payment information, and it covers the first 4 courses of every curriculum, the quizzes, the analytics, the Playlist Builder, and progress that stays in step between watch and web.
Earlier versions of the app let you listen without signing in. That changed because the two halves only work together: without an account the watch cannot remember where you stopped, your quizzes have nothing to attach to, and the courses you pick on the website never reach the watch.
Press and hold the down button for 2 seconds and EduJog will open.
If you have a different music provider activated, go to watch settings and select Music Providers, then choose EduJog as your preferred provider. Next time you hold the down button for 2 seconds, EduJog will open.
First step: restart your watch. If the EduJog app on your Garmin does not work as expected—sync fails, buttons don’t respond, downloads fail, or you see a network error even though everything seems connected—try restarting the watch. In most cases this fixes issues with the WiFi connection or the watch’s system interacting with the EduJog app.
If problems continue after a restart:
- Failed or canceled previous sync: A failed or canceled sync can sometimes leave the app in a bad state; a watch restart often resolves it.
- WiFi setup issues: Check the Garmin documentation for how to set up the WiFi connection on your device.
- WiFi connection problems: There may be a temporary problem with the WiFi connection itself.
If the problem persists after restarting and checking WiFi, consult the Garmin documentation for WiFi configuration or contact us at info@edujog.com.
If you're running out of episodes during your workouts, there are two things you can do:
- Increase the number of episodes: In your EduJog app settings, you can choose to download 20 or even 30 episodes instead of the default number.
- Add more learning areas or courses: The more learning areas you pick (or courses you subscribe to on the web), the more episodes are available in your playlist.
Activation and course data travel through the Garmin Connect app on your phone, so make sure the watch is connected to the phone via Bluetooth. Episode downloads are different—those need WiFi, which is why the first sync usually wants the watch near your home network.
Your courses come from your account, so check your subscriptions on the website first—if nothing is subscribed there, the watch has nothing to fetch. Then run Sync again. If it keeps happening, restart the watch and try once more, or contact us at info@edujog.com.
