Differences between Beta 6.85 and Final Release 7.10

the change log from the beta is exactly the same, but I wonder if there are still some improvements made In the final release in comparison to the beta version.

Just asking for a friend;-)

Differences from the beta version only in the addition of language packs for displaying new widgets in the clock's native language. The rest of the innovations are unchanged from beta 6.85.

If something new was added I'm sure it would be listed. If they made a minor tweak to something listed in the beta it really doesn't change anything that was listed in the beta as far as a user is…

With betas (6.85), users must manually install them. With production releases (7.10), everyone gets them. That's why you may not see anything changed between a beta and a production release.

If the last digit is a 0, it's a usually a production release.

That doesn't answer my question. I just wanted to know if they improved some of these new features in the final release, which were already implementet in the beta.

How should we know? Current rollout is only 10%, be patient.

I think Garmin should know it. Right?

If something new was added I'm sure it would be listed. If they made a minor tweak to something listed in the beta it really doesn't change anything that was listed in the beta as far as a user is concerned. For example, would it make sense to change "Improved feedback on stress level readings", to "Improved feedback on stress level readings even more"? It's already been covered in the beta list.

The main point here is that you are not asking Garmin but a user forum so, anything we say is really just a guess. I think Who Knows stated it well.

I believe also employes of Garmin are in this forum or who do you think is loading up the topics about the new firmware? For sure not just a user, so there is also a possibility that Garmin-Brooks can give an answer. Right?

I am slowly getting the impression that I am being misunderstood here, because I ask whether one of the points that was listed in the beta version has been adjusted again in the release version compared to the beta version and not whether something has been improved here, which is was not in the beta. And if you don't know, just don't answer.
Even if this is a user forum, it is still operated by Garmin and there is also the possibility that someone from Garmin can give the answer.
