Garmin's new public update brings many bug fixes to smartwatches

System Software 15.08 brings a range of bug fixes to the Instinct Series 2 watches. These include resolving problems when users edit reps in a workout and with the training load calculation. The changelog also notes improvements specific to each model. For example, the 2X receives a bug fix for battery estimates when using the flashlight in battery-saver mode, and an issue with the Crossover's Fitness Age screen display has been resolved. You can find a screenshot of the combined release notes below. Plus, for the Instinct 2X and Instinct Crossover devices, the GPS firmware has been updated to version 8.07.

Garmin noted that the software was rolling out in phases, with the forum post suggesting that the software had reached 50% of Instinct 2 series smartwatches. Whether the release has since been completed remains unclear. The update should be automatically pushed to wearables when connected to Bluetooth, though you can manually check for the update in System Settings or install it via Garmin Express.
