Hello Enduro customers,
Our next beta version for the Enduro is now available!
Please email the Garmin Outdoor Quality Team if you find issues in software after installing this update: [email protected]
If you’ve participated in the Enduro Beta Program previously, you’ll notice a few changes from how we have managed this in the past. And further down the line, we’ll have some additional improvements to the Beta Program (more on that later!) Notably, this forum post is now the primary resource for reading the change log notes – they are not available on another webpage. (There will be more options for viewing change logs after we implement the additional improvements to our beta program.)
The link to download the software update is below. Please note that your computer will download a .zip file when you open this link. This zip contains the software update, as well as a folder with the file necessary for backdating software, and instructions for this process if you choose to do so. Remember, backdating software will reset all settings.
Use this link to download the zip for your watch to update to version 20.86:
