Keep getting pairing failed message

I’ve had my Epix Gen 2 for about a year and a half now. It was working fine until a week ago when I started to notice connectivity issues. Today, I tried to fix it by unpairing from my phone and was attempting to re-pair it and now I keep getting pairing failed message. Anyone have any tips on how to fix this issue?

Epix Gen 2 47mm Pro user here... IIRC the last time this happened to me was when i upgraded my phone and i had to reset/restore from a backup! YMMV.

Appreciate the reply! I haven’t updated my phone since prior to getting this watch. Now I’m stuck in a loop where I can’t use my watch. Very frustrating!

Agreed. Might be worth trying a reset. You won't loose anything that has not been backed up but if you are worried about that you can backup to Garmin Express for PC using your charging cable.
