Some of the specific improvements include better navigation alerts, solutions for crash issues on Android devices, and optimization of the watch face editor’s animation and speed.
Garmin’s dedication to addressing user feedback is evident in this update, aimed at refining both performance and functionality. For example, it fixes issues related to saving Expedition activities, manages smart notifications more efficiently, and resolves battery saver glitches on larger screens.
The broader scope of updates made since the watches’ release features a range of fixes and improvements. These include refining call functionalities, adjusting alarm volumes, ensuring accurate workout and navigation data, and enhancing interface interactions such as scrolling and button functions. Garmin has also worked on improving battery management and making visual enhancements, such as brighter always-on watch faces and improved heart rate zone settings.
