How to sign up for the Garmin Beta Software program

Garmin Epix Gen 2

If you're a regular Garmin user and you're looking to try new features before anyone else, then you’ll want to sign up to the Garmin beta software program. You'll be able to get access to new features to test, and you'll be helping the Garmin community by reporting any bugs you find in the software.

You’ll need to know whether your device is compatible, and there are some caveats to the program, too – notably, that the beta software updates can occasionally come with bugs. If you’re dependent on your Garmin watch day in, day out and don't want to risk certain features on your watch becoming temporarily bug-ridden, you may want to avoid enrolling in the Garmin beta software program, but it’s easy to roll back the update if you change in mind.
