Garmin has released a new software update aimed at resolving unexpected shutdowns in its older high-end smartwatches. The update addresses a problem that occurred when using the Broadcast HR feature, which allows users to share real-time heart rate data with other devices. The fix is now available globally, ensuring affected devices operate more reliably. Users who own models like the Garmin Forerunner 945 or Garmin Venu 2 are encouraged to install the update through the Garmin Connect app. The issue was reported by several users who experienced sudden power-offs during workouts or while tracking health metrics. Garmin has not provided a specific timeline for the update’s rollout, but it is available for download on its official platform. The company has emphasized that the update does not affect newer models and is part of its ongoing efforts to improve device performance.
