Is the latest Fenix 8 software 11.68 or 11.86?

Thanks,

Thank you. I have updated mine as well but the subject line in this forum from Garmin states 11.86 and is confusing.

11.6x Public (Live) is incremental, since 11.xx first initial release

---

11.8x Beta is incremental, but this branch start point is from 11.64 (like you mention)

So Garmin need to replicate some 11.6x bugfix to 11.8x Beta ...

For example 11.68 fix is not already available in 11.8x beta branch (Fixed potential shutdown due to rapid temperature change)

I updated too. I have had severe battery drain om my f8 47mm Amoled. 3-4 days with AOD off, no 3 party except Stryd Data field. Seems like the battery capacity doubled with 11.68. strange, 11.67 had battery bug fixed but it did not help me. Hopefully this lasts. Am in contact with Garmin and I am logging as well.
