Garmin Drops 10.33 Alpha for fēnix 7

Lots of change here, but the biggest is probably the addition of “Morning Report”. This is a feature found on the 255/955, that was promised for the fēnix 7, but hasn’t made it over until now. Although, it’s just the foundational elements on the watch so far. You can only turn it on/off, with no option to mess about with the settings. This not me complaining though, because Alpha software is by definition unfinished. Looking forward to seeing it develop.

Oh, and if running is your thing, then they also added Run Power without the need for an external HRM or foot pod. That’s pretty cool, but since I only run 1x a year to remind myself why I don’t do it more often, not a biggy for me personally ;).
