Garmin has started rolling out a new stable update for its Fenix 7 and Fenix 7 Pro models. This update is also expected to be available for the Enduro 2, Epix 2, Marq 2, and the Quatix 7 (currently priced at $349.99 on Amazon), along with other premium smartwatches. To provide some background, System Software 19.34 is replacing version 18.16, which was released at the beginning of October to fix several lingering bugs.
Major Software Release
System Software 19.34 marks the first significant software update for the Fenix 7 and its counterparts since System Software 18.14 was rolled out over two months ago. As expected, this new update introduces a wide range of enhancements, which are detailed in a comprehensive fourteen-line changelog.
Notable Improvements
One of the key features added is the ability to back up courses and saved locations, enhancing the functionality of the service considerably. Moreover, System Software 19.34 is reported to enhance map controls and improve the sensitivity of the Fenix 7 and its similar models in automatically detecting when a climbing activity begins.
In conclusion, this update primarily aims to fix bugs, including one issue where the flashlight might not turn on promptly when using a Connect IQ watch face. Additionally, Fenix 7 users may have experienced issues in earlier updates where pool swim activities were sometimes logged with a distance of zero, which should now be rectified. Here is the complete changelog for System Software 19.34:
