Bluetooth connection lost and no reconnection

Hi,
since this week (and it worked perfectly before for months) I have severe problems with garmin connect and keeping the connection to all of my devices (Fenix 5x, Vivosport, Fenix3HR).
After some time the connection is lost and is not established again. Today I did a run and when I came back connect was not able to reconnect to my Fenix5x and the Vioxport.
I tried different things like turning off and on bluetooth at the devices and at my Smartphone, clear cache at my smartphone, reinstall GC, etc... but the only thing that is working is a restart of my smartphone.
Has anybody noticed similar problems since this week or an idea how to fix it? I am not sure if there was a GC update...
Best regards

Same here. S6 with Forerunner 235, been connected for over a yr and last week nothing. I've tried every which way but it keeps timing out. I hadn't tried restarting my phone, just the watch. The phone sees the watch but the watch won't talk to the phone. They both have the current software thats recommended but just won't pair. I didn't think of clearing cache, guess I'll try that too.

I think I found the troublemaker in my case. It was the App "BatOn" I installed last week. This App is reading Battery Infos from connected Bluetooth devices. Since I deinstalled that App, Connect is again working fine.
