Updated | Garmin wearable receives over 40 changes in recent stable update

There is a new Diver-to-Diver distance measure when in-dive, the process for pairing multiple tank pods has been optimized, and a new Moonphase watch face has been added. Other features align with the Q1 Fenix 7 update; these include the Jump Rope activity and, for multisports like triathlons, automatic transitions between activity types. On top of that, the wearable gets a Sleep Coach widget glance, support for Male audio prompts and access to a global database of 400m running tracks. Plus, the wearable now supports CIQ System7. Garmin has worked on various bug fixes for the update, resolving problems with the "Footpod Connected" banner, misleading lines when navigating and missing data from the primary race widget. A complete list of all features and bug fixes included in the update can be found below.

In the forum post, Garmin says it has "fully released" system version 16.25 for the Descent Mk3, indicating that all units can find the update. The software should be pushed to the wearables automatically via Garmin Connect or the Garmin Dive app.

Update: Some upgrades, like the Diver-to Diver distance and tank pod pairing process improvement, only apply to the Descent Mk3i wearable.
