Software Update for GPS 4/24/18

Just updated my Fenix 5X with a new GPS Update. Not sure what improvements this is intended to provide but it is available on Garmin Express, though does not show as a software download otherwise on Garmin's support page as of tonight.
  • Not in my case. I have had the new maps listed for a while now (not in a rush to update). There was no sign of the GPS update (on my GE) until yesterday where it showed up as an additional update available (along with the maps). Installed it by itself without a problem. Restarted the watch and ran an activity as I was driving to training (although it did not actually take long to get the initial lock). As the release notes are really vague, I have no idea what, if any, improvements could be expected.



    I Lied apparently. Just checked and still on 4.30 even after going through the install procedure (including the standard "this will take xx minutes to install" - apparently it did not install. That would explain the fast fix!! Next time I will not try something like this as I'm running out the door.
