Garmin brings dozens of new features to Fenix 7, Enduro 2, Epix 2 and Marq 2 series smartwatches with latest beta software updates
Garmin has started rolling out a new build to Enduro 2, Epix 2, Fenix 7 and Marq 2 series smartwatches through its Public Beta program. While the company issued Beta version 11.21 less than a week ago, it has already moved onto Beta version 11.22. Please note that you must have enrolled your Enduro 2, Epix 2, Fenix 7 or Marq 2 series smartwatch on Garmin's Public Beta program before it will receive either update.
It is worth noting that it could take up to a day for GCM to pull the latest update from Garmin's servers. Also, Garmin stresses that it may take 'several hours' for an update to finish transferring, at which point you can then install it. Moreover, the company advises that you inform it of any bugs encountered through its Beta Bug Reports forum.
