Users report their Garmin devices becoming unusable and the devices getting stuck in a boot loop. This not only seems to impact Forerunner devices. I experienced the same on my Garmin Forerunner 255 when I went running this morning.

There's also Forbes article now but it refers to the Reddit post: https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewwilliams/2025/01/28/garmi...

yep, happened to my Fenix 7 as well immediately as soon as I activated workout mode (i.e. started GPS).

Ended up with factory reset and restore from Connect App backup.
