When is a new beta coming out?

What's the change log?

It isn't out yet but I did a quick test of the navigation to a point on the map (it used to reboot if the list had more than one entry). That seems to be fixed.

It's out! forums.garmin.com/.../public-beta-version-13-15

This update, version 13.15, is a Release Candidate. "Release Candidate" means that this exact software version is planned to “Go Live” as a public update as long as no critical issues are observed. All copies of version 13.15 will be identical, so there are no differences in functionality whether you install version 13.15 as a Public Release Candidate or wait for the update to be a Live public update.

As a member of the Public Beta program, this update will be automatically delivered to your watch through GCM. Please note that GCM will check for an available update once every 24 hours, and after that it may take several hours for the update to finish transferring and be available on your watch to install.

13.15 in here too...

First impressions, feels smoother. Response is fast and smooth.

Navigate using location on map is fixed! Finally!

Also, zoom in and out seems working ok now using touch (before zooming out was very finicky).

Graphs have been tweaked a bit (colors and axis scaling is indeed fixed)

Saw the firstbeat sw is updated too:

ETE: 6.14.6.7 -> 6.14.8.3

LHA: 2.1.2.5 -> 2.1.4.3

Might give the OHR a new try as well as that has been updated too, but going for a run before thursday..

First impressions are good though

Thanks for the feedback!

Did they fix the heart rate with a strap?

Just loading the beta now. I haven't have an issue with my HRM-PRO Plus to date on 12.27.

Release notes there now on the beta forum, seen he to deliver a lot.

this is pretty exciting. bummer i'm not running until Thursday. i do see on the other thread that another fix is that the GPS logging during hotkey use is supposed to be now working again. if so, that is a huge fix that i've been missing for over a year (since the 945LTE).
