Firmware is still at 7.20

Hey all, I had a about 5 month detraining phase of life and I'm turning it around with another half-marathon plan, so just doing some basic housekeeping I was curious what version I was on and it's still 7.20.  I have auto-update still enabled as well.  Is there a setting in the app i'm missing that can force an update?  The watch and app has obviously synced.  

I haven't done the Garmin Express thing, and I can do it to manually force an update, but ultimately looking to see why my 245 isn't auto-updating.  

Thanks everyone.

  • i had somewhat of a similar situation. I synced the phone and the watch using Garmin Connect on my phone and the software update came down that afternoon once the watch was charged up.

  • The device is probably auto-updating, the thing is that the download via the app takes some time. My guess is that you maybe have disconnected before the download was finished.

    When connected check download status in the app under Menu > Garmin Devices. It should display the download progress.

    With Garmin Express it usually takes just a minute to transfer a firmware download.
