Anyone having problems with the 4.10 update?
The volume controls have stopped working with my Airpods.

I can confirm volume controls are now finally working for me with the latest update 4.20.
Same problem with my Bose Frames. Was working great prior to the latest update. I'm hoping Garmin moves on this quickly as I didn't shell out this much money to have to listen to music on my phone.…
Hopefully they'll push it out quickly, I have no interest in running beta software on my watch. With this bug it sort of feels like beta anyway.
You may wish to try the beta update 4.11 which addresses the volume control: https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/outdoor-recreation/f/fenix-6-series/194351/fenix-6-series---4-11-beta-release

Absolutely! Judging by the feedback in the 4.11 Beta Thread I would stay away from the current release.
Same issue here with Monster Intensity BT buds. It <was> working with some really cheap BT buds that I already had. But I bought the Monsters, because the cheapo ones died when they got sweaty = every workout. Now I can't adjust the volume. Guess I'll raise a support issue with Garmin to add my one to their list.
....and I just did a quick check with the cheapo buds ("intech") and the volume control still works on the headphones, but when I tried to control the volume with the F6, it made it very quiet even though the volume bar was at the bottom. So I suspect that the implementation of the BT control standard is not correct.

This is the kind of BS that makes me consider going back to Apple Watch. It shouldn't take this long to undo a mistake made in the update.
Hmmm, you would be lucky to get any kind of admission of an issue from Apple. Then again, I suspect Apple test their devices more thoroughly before release.
My Apple watch has some small nuances, but Apple would never let something as bad as this release happen. Garmin's problem is that they rely too much on simulations verse real world testing. Using software simulators to evaluate a program/firmware is no way to test.
Yeah I like the Fenix line much better than Apple Watch, but at least the Apple Watch works.
