I recommend reaching out to Product Support through their website at Garmin Support directly to report the issue.
I'm sure the solution has been posted on this forum already but I don't see it linked from this thread.

I have the same problem too. Annoying!

The solution is to change the language of Garmin Connect through the iOS settings on your iPhone. For iOS 18:
1. Open Settings -> Apps -> Garmin Connect -> Language (in the bottom). Change it to Spanish, for instance.
2. Open Connect. The entire app should now be Spanish, with the exception of the device page, which should be English.
3. Open Settings again, change language to initial language. All of Connect should now have the right language.
Thank you, I'm glad to hear there's a workaround - is there a solution coming from Garmin so that I don't have to muck with iOS languages? That said, I've done the workaround and it works as described, hooray!
This workaround if you only had 1 device connect to Garmin connect. I had both Edge 1040 and a fenix 6x. I’ve try the workaround change the phone language to Chinese and yes Edge 1040 landing page will be display in English but all the sub manual will change to Chinese same goes with the cycling computer now will be in Chinese. And my fenix 6x landing page will be in Chinese in reverse.
I confirm. I'm in the same situation as you are. My 1040 went into constant reset loop so I had to do hard reset. After that I added it back in Garmin Connect and now 1040 device settings are in Chinese. I also have Forerunner 965 connected but it's setttings are in English.
I have an Android 14 phone, so it has to be related to 1040 and how it interacts with Garmin Connect. It is extremely annoying.
It sounds like step 1 and 2 worked as described. Now if you do step 3 and change the app back to English (or whatever it was initially), everything should be in English, the device page as well as the rest of the app.
Unfortunately nope. Once I change my phone main language back to English. My Edge 1040 will eventually display Chinese on the landing page but the sub manual will be in English
I just checked again and indeed, the workaround does not work anymore on my phone. My 1040 is back to Chinese. Xiexie Garmin.
