Garmin has rolled out new stable updates (System Software 19.38) for the Fenix 7, Fenix 7 Pro, and Tactix 7 smartwatches. However, a follow-up update is already in beta testing to address a Connect IQ crash issue.
System Software 19.38 Bug Fixes
The 19.38 update focuses on resolving several existing bugs:
- Workout schedule mismatch with Garmin Connect
- Incorrect weekly totals after changing the "First Day of Week" setting
- Missing pan/zoom icons on the map
- Sleep mode re-enabling after sleep tracking
- Potential shutdown when saving/discarding activities
- Untranslated workout names in some languages
Connect IQ Crash Fix in Beta
Despite beta testing, System Software 19.38 introduced a bug that can cause the Connect IQ application to crash. Garmin has released Beta Version 19.40 with a fix for this issue. It's recommended to wait for the 19.40 update to become stable before updating, which is expected within the next few days.
