Approach G8

Anyone having problems with their Approach, I keep getting a Didn't Sync connection error. I have unpaired and repaired it with my iPhone 6s a couple of times. It pairs but doesn't sync.
I called Garmin and they didn't know anything, I'm waiting to hear back from my email to support. If I don't hear from them by next week I'll call again. I was hoping I could find help here.

    Only some golf courses

    It seems to fail only on some courses, my home course that I play most but I can download it thru my computer. I talked to Garmin and they are looking into it. If I find out anything I'll but it on here.

    Garmin is working on it

    Garmin has got back to me. It is either a mapping problem or Garmin Connect Mobile App problem. If I hear anything else I will post it

    Ive had similar issues with it being connected but not syncing. If I keep unpairing and reparing it eventually syncs. This proves to be such a pain that I quit using the G8 and switched to using a vivoactive, The G8 was such a good product when it first came out. It would always sync thru BT and would synch thru wifi. Since October it no longer does the latter and seldom does the former. Also if you track your shots GC has not displayed the club used since Halloween. I convinced support this was a display issue 2-3 weeks ago and even told them how to fix it and still it does not display. As a retired software developer for GRMN I am more frustrated than most with this situation. GC has recently lost some good people and I am so concerned Ive been selling stock. The QC controls have simply gone away
