Is there any update on when the fix for the bug rendering BLE support for Edge device in the iOS SDK will be available?

Is there anything I can do to help make the case to move it forward?

    Hey,

    As of right now the team dealing with BLE functions on iOS are still trying to reach a resolution. I apologize that I have no further information.

    Thank you,

    Thank you

    I've tried using a Forerunner to get back on track (since it is unaffected by this bug) but has other bugs (reported last week) preventing me from moving forward.

    For what it's worth to you making the case to the team, I've now purchased a Wahoo ANT+ key so that I can get access to the data I need, removing Garmin IQ/Connect completely from the product stack. My Edge (or development Forerunner) were going to serve as the data collection devices, sending relevant data over BLE to my iPhone for processing and computation, then back to the Garmin for rider display. However, I've been stuck in the mud for 3 months now and found this other path forward. I'll look to bring Garmin back into the stack if and when the tech and time allow.

    Thanks for your help along the way.

    Hi Brandon and team -
    I see that the Edge software has been reved since I last checked in, however the release notes don't indicate this bug has been fixed. Can you confirm that the BLE + Edge comm channel is still broken?

    Thanks,
    Doug

    Hey,

    Still no word yet. My understanding is that the possible solutions are quite complicated and extensive. I'm sorry for the wait and continue to thank you for your patience.

    Thanks,
