iPhone Garmin Connect not syncing on iOS 13.6

I was able to sync it this morning by rebooting my watch and the iPhone but it won't sync now. I am considering pairing my watch with my old iPhone 6 running 12.4.8 as a temporary workaround. It is possible that Garmin Connect was broken by iOS 13.6 security fixes in which case it would likely be broken on iOS 12.4.8 as well (I upgraded last night). So one of the minor pains in upgrading.

Update: rebooting the iPhone gets the sync to working again but that's not a viable solution.

I ran updates with Garmin Express and all seems to be fine now. Bluetooth sync seems to take longer but I can't tell if that's Garmin or Apple and I now have sync and charging set up on my PC so it will just sync over USB when I charge.

Garmin Connect doesn’t immediately connect to my watch (Forerunner 645) when I open the app, and I don’t recall that being the case before I updated to iOS 13.6. It does seem to sync periodically in the background, though.

Sometimes it does, sometimes you have to pull or hit the blue circle. But I had trouble connecting or syncing. It would start, make some progress and then just sit there. All is well now.
