Garmin Edge 1030 and Garmin Fenix watch 6 Pro Bluetooth connection with iPhone X running latest IOS 13

Dear Garmin Engineers,

I use your products for the last 15 years and I like all your products but there is an issue with how you implement the bluetooth connections to an iPhone.

I'm using a Garmin Fenix 6 Pro and a Garmin Edge 1030 together with an iPhone X running the latest ios 13.

When the Garmin Edge 1030 is turned off. The Garmin Fenix watch is connected just fine with the iPhone, sometimes it doesn't reconnect to my phone when I wasn't close but that's ok.

The real problem starts when I go on my bike and use the Garmin Edge 1030, both are connected initially to the iPhone but soon during my ride the Fenix watch will start disconnecting/connecting/disconnecting and will not connect any more as long as the Edge 1030 is connected. I'm not understanding why. I do not use the watch for the bike ride but still would like all my other functions on the watch to work with the iPhone, like weather , heart rate, oxygen reading etc.

Are both garmin units using the same bluetooth protocols and interfere with each other? which would be not ok  i have other bluetooth devices that work at the same time.

Do more users have this same issue, can one of the Garmin Engineers comment on this issue?

Don't ask me to reset, reconnect etc, I have done this a ton of times and it doesn't help, I'm on all the official released software for iphone, fenix and 1030

Thanks
