Garmin released 13.24 Beta for Instinct 3 models and Instinct E.

Update Details

  • Added support for Connect IQ app downloads directly on watch.
  • Fixed a potential issue with data field layout in Hiking activity.

Impact Analysis

13.24 is a high-value beta because it includes one platform-level capability and one activity-specific UI fix.

  • The CIQ change reduces dependence on phone transfer flow.
  • The hiking layout fix is directly relevant for core Instinct outdoor usage.

This is the first February build in the sequence that clearly mixes feature enablement + bug fix.
