Garmin’s Fenix 9 Pro has GPS problems and app devs are frustrated
Are your Fenix 9 Pro apps dropping GPS? Devs are pointing a finger at Garmin.
The Fenix 9 Pro, recently launched by Garmin, has been causing issues for third-party apps that utilize its GPS module. Developers are expressing frustration, alleging that Garmin is giving priority to problems affecting its own software. One developer claims that Garmin's slow response to reported issues has led to a surge of negative reviews on the Connect IQ store, far surpassing those on other platforms.
While Garmin may not be the fastest at resolving bugs, it certainly isn't the slowest either, especially when it comes to its own applications. However, when it comes to third-party apps, the company seems to be lagging behind. Recently, the Fenix 9 Pro has reportedly been cutting out after about 14 seconds in roughly half of all sessions initiated, rendering users unable to obtain precise GPS data when employing non-Garmin navigation and workout applications.
