Hey everyone,
I have a Garmin Instinct 2S, and I'm considering doing a factory reset to fix a navigation issue. Before I do that, I want to make sure I won’t lose my custom data screens, activity profiles, sensor pairings, alerts, etc. I know that in the Garmin Connect app, I can see and even adjust some of these settings (like data screens for cycling, for example).
So here’s my main question: If I do a factory reset on the watch but keep it paired with the same Garmin Connect account – will those settings automatically re-sync to the watch, or will they be lost?
It seems like the app reflects the current state of the watch, but does it actually store a backup that can be pushed back to the device after a reset? Would love to hear from anyone who’s tried this or knows how Garmin handles this.
Thanks in advance!
