New update lands for Garmin Forerunner 265 with extensive changelog

The Forerunner 265 has received plenty of new software updates in the last few weeks, having been moved on from v19.xx builds in late July. Now, Garmin has decided to introduce Beta Version 20.23, the third v20.xx update that it has released to date.

Please note that Garmin has not offered any of these updates through its stable software distribution channel yet. Instead, those running stable software have been left running Software Version 19.18, which debuted in May. Based on Garmin's forum post, it could be a while before any v20.xx updates reach the Forerunner 265 (curr. $459.99 on Amazon) too.

In the meantime, Beta Version 20.23 is said to make 18 changes compared to Beta Version 20.21. With that being said, it appears that only a handful are new improvements, such as a fix that prevents map data field truncations from occurring and refined pool swim workout options. For reference, Garmin claims that the software introduces the following bug fixes, new features and improvements over earlier builds:

  • Added Device Settings Backup and Restore.
  • Adds Garmin Share, share your workouts, courses, and waypoints between compatible Garmin devices.
  • Fixed alert suppression during breathwork activity.
  • Fixed calendar display issues.
  • Fixed crash that could occur during activities.
  • Fixed crash that could occur on notification glance.
  • Fixed edge case weather data display errors.
  • Fixed haptic feedback on some watch face data fields.
  • Fixed lock screen vibration during sleep mode.
  • Fixed map data field text truncation.
  • Fixed pool size selection in Garmin Connect real time settings.
  • Fixed various bugs and UI improvements.
  • Fixed various language translation errors.
  • Fixed workouts missing from some activity profiles.
  • Improvements to race time predictions based on fitness level and recent efforts.
  • Improvements to support pool swim workouts with pace alerts and critical swim speed.
  • Improvements to the pool swim rest screen and alert tones.
  • Integrates the Garmin Run Coach feature into Garmin Connect app.
