RECKON Watch Firmware — 2.40.5
Released: October 2026
This update brings faster GPS positioning, map improvements, fresher weather data, and fixes across notifications, workouts, battery life, and syncing.
New & Improved
Faster GPS with Assisted GPS
RECKON now uses Assisted GPS to help your watch find your location faster by downloading satellite data from your phone.
After updating: Make sure the Bridger App has location permissions 'always' enabled on your phone so your watch can take advantage of Assisted GPS even when the app is closed.
Maps Remember Your Zoom
Maps now remembers your zoom level when you leave and reopen the map, so you can pick up where you left off. Your zoom level will reset after restarting the watch.
Fresher Weather
Current weather on your watch face and in the Weather app now refreshes hourly.
Fixes & Improvements
- Notifications: Phone notifications now properly return after leaving Battery Saver or Hunt Mode. Hunt Mode also restores your previous Bluetooth and Do Not Disturb settings.
- Workouts: Fixed issues that could cause freezes or restarts when opening, recording, or saving workouts.
- Battery: Fixed additional overnight battery drain when Always-On Display and Do Not Disturb were both enabled.
- Syncing: Fixed an issue that could leave watch-to-app syncing stuck on “Watch is reconnecting.”
- Heart Rate & HRV: Improved Resting Heart Rate and HRV data displays for more consistent information across screens.
- Maps: Fixed an incorrect memory error that could appear after waiting an extended time for GPS.
- Settings: Language can now be selected using physical buttons, and Restore Settings now also resets daily goals and time zone settings.
- Additional interface and performance improvements throughout RECKON.
