The compatible devices page on the developer.garmin.com page hasn't been updated in a long time. Is there an updated list somewhere that shows Connect 3.0 and Connect 3.1 compatability?

This has needed an update for quite a while--I actually started to clean this up last week and hadn't quite gotten the task wrapped up. I should be able to finish it this week.
2.70 is the main FW version, Hit "down" a few times in about and you'll see the CIQ version.
The only devices with production FW and 3,1,0 CIQ right now is the 2.90 FW on the 645. The 8.02…
Right now, nothing has a production 3.1 CIQ VM. There's a beta version of FW for the f5+ (20.01) that's really a "CIQ dev only" thing so 3.1 features can be tested with sideloads.
As far as what will get 3.1, my understanding is all 3.0 devices will get it, but if I recall, there was something that would only be on 645 or newer devices, and I think it might be the new BLE interface.
When devices start getting 3.1, it will be gradual, especially when you consider the world wide devices and the asian-pacific variants. The rino and oregon got 3.0 a couple months before 3.1 was announced, so that's how gradual it may be.
Nothing shows for 3.0 either. The page I linked only shows 1.x and 2.x and no recent devices at all.
It isn't in the official link, but here's the story.
All CIQ 2.x devices got 3.0, except the va-hr, fr735, edge 520/820, Edge 1000
Newer (unlisted) devices have CIQ 3.0, except the fr45, which has CIQ 1.4.x
One small correction. The Edge 820 did get CIQ 3.0 support, but the Edge 520 did not because it got replaced with the Edge 520+ when it was announced at the 2018 CIQ summit.
Otherwise Jim's list is spot on.
The way it was described to me at the CIQ summit this year, is that devices get left behind at a major version if its functional replacement has been announced, i.e. VA-HR -> VA3, FR735xt -> FR935. Edge 1000 -> Edge 1030, Edge 520 -> Edge 520+. When a new minor revision is released, all devices on the major revision should be updated, although not all new features may be available on older devices.
This has needed an update for quite a while--I actually started to clean this up last week and hadn't quite gotten the task wrapped up. I should be able to finish it this week.
Any news on this, in particular which Edge devices will support the 3.1 generic BLE feature?
So, did this ever happen? I just checked and neither my one year old 645 or my two week old 245 are listed? Also, I'm assuming the CIQ version is the one shown on System -> About. My 245 shows version 2.70 which seems odd for such a new product, but maybe that's common. Just curious.
Thanks!
