After updating to the latest firmware the flashlight widget has vanished from my garmin Venu 3 and i can’t find it in any of the menus both on the watch and in the app. How do i get this back?

Flashlight can be accessed by pressing and releasing the top-right button > Select Apps > Select Flashlight. More info on this can be found here.

If you continue to have trouble, please reach out to your local Product Support team.

If you open the Connect app on the smartphone then go to More > Garmin Devices > Select Venu 3 > Select Apps. Are you able to add the missing apps from the available section here?

You will need to sync the watch after adding them.

If you are still unable to please reach out to your local Product Support team.

Any updates on the missing flashlight?

I’m in the same boat, flashlight was there until I updated to 6.22. Now it it no where to be found.

Garmin support didn't help.
I've reset the watch and it actually fixed the issue

I was able to find my flashlight. I followed these instructions: If you open the Connect app on the smartphone then go to More > Garmin Devices > Select Venu 3 > Select Apps. It said to add my flashlight from there. However, mine was still showing as added. So what i did was mess around all over the place. Long story short it looks like it's no longer an option to add as a option on the controls section. What i did was add it as a shortcut to my buttons.

So go to connect, go to more, scroll down to garmin device, tap on garmin device, then tap on your venue 3s, click on shortcut, then click on middle button tap and you will see the option to add your flashlight. I hope this works for everyone. P.S. I also synced my watch after all this and turned it off then restarted to make sure it all worked out.
