That’s it! As you can see, this is a big update, so it’s best to keep the watch near the WiFi router to make sure all data is downloaded as fast as possible. Both Fenix 7 and Epix watches should download the updates automatically but if for whatever reason it isn’t initiated automatically, sync the watch with the Garmin Connect app. Often, Garmin devices update overnight if they are left near the smartphone they are connected to.
