Garmin is currently deploying a brand-new beta software iteration, designated version 21.11, across a selection of its high-end smartwatch lines. This update is specifically targeted at users of the popular Fenix 7 series, the vibrant Epix 2, the ultra-enduring Enduro 2, the marine-focused Quatix 7, and the luxurious Marq Gen 2 collections.
Change Log:
- Fixed ending and tracking naps started without a nap timer.
- Fixed body battery and stress disappearing from glance history.
- Fixed device automatically reentering sleep mode when manually ended.
- Fixed custom text responses resetting to default.
- Fixed strength activity weight being changed on the rep edit and weight screen.
Addressing Sleep and Recovery Tracking Enhancements
This latest beta release incorporates several key improvements aimed at refining the user experience, particularly in the realm of activity tracking and physiological metrics. Notably, the update resolves an issue where naps initiated without explicitly setting a timer were not being properly concluded or recorded. This enhancement should provide a more accurate representation of дневной rest periods for users who spontaneously doze off.
Resolving Display Anomalies and User Interface Glitches
Beyond sleep tracking, version 21.11 tackles some frustrating display anomalies. Users who previously experienced the disappearance of their Body Battery and stress level data from the glance history should find this issue resolved. This ensures a more consistent and readily available overview of these crucial wellness metrics directly on their wrist.
Streamlining Sleep Mode and Customization Options
Furthermore, the update addresses an inconvenience related to sleep mode. The frustrating scenario where devices would automatically re-enter sleep mode after a user manually ended it should now be a thing of the past. This fix offers greater control and responsiveness. Additionally, users who personalize their quick text responses will be pleased to know that this update prevents these custom messages from reverting back to the default settings, preserving their preferred communication shortcuts.
Enhancing Accuracy in Strength Training Data
For fitness enthusiasts who rely on their Garmin for tracking strength workouts, beta 21.11 includes a vital fix. The update rectifies a bug that caused the weight information in strength activities to be inadvertently altered when editing repetitions or accessing the weight screen. This ensures the integrity of workout data and provides a more reliable training log.
Initiating the Update on Your Garmin Device
For those eager to take advantage of these improvements, Garmin has made the update readily accessible. Users can manually initiate the download process directly from their compatible smartwatch by navigating through the device’s menu. Simply head to the “Main Menu,” then select “Settings,” followed by “System,” and finally tap on “Software Update.” From there, selecting “Check For Updates” will prompt the device to search for and install the new beta software version 21.11.
