Garmin Fenix 8 Beta Fixes Navigation Crashes but Comes With Important ECG and Dive Limitations
· Reported by TodoMountainBike
Garmin has released another firmware update for its premium multisport watches, addressing navigation problems that could interrupt outdoor activities or prevent saved courses from appearing on the device. The new Garmin Fenix 8 beta 24.16 includes fixes for unexpected reboots and Garmin Connect synchronization issues. However, the improvements come with a trade-off: ECG and diving features remain disabled in the beta program, and Garmin has identified an additional issue affecting indoor climbing activities.
