What's New in Version 31.30?

Location Search Crash Fix

  • Fixed a crash when searching for locations.

Garmin lists one change for Edge 1040 Software Version 31.30. The same fix recently appeared in the 31.30 beta update, and this stable release brings it to regular Edge 1040 users.

Why This Update Matters

The Edge 1040 remains a major Garmin cycling computer for riders who use structured workouts, route planning, maps, and long-distance navigation. Location search is a practical part of that experience.

If search crashes, it can interrupt route setup before a ride or make mid-ride adjustments harder. Version 31.30 should reduce that friction.

Useful for Existing Edge 1040 Owners

Many Edge 1040 users are not rushing to replace the device with a newer Edge model. A stable maintenance update like 31.30 helps keep the existing hardware reliable for everyday training and longer rides.

How to Get the Update

Garmin says the update can be downloaded through Garmin Express or Garmin Connect Mobile once available.

Because this is a 20% rollout, your Edge 1040 may not show the update immediately. Check again later if Software Version 31.30 is not visible yet.

Should Edge 1040 Owners Update?

For most riders, yes. This is a stable update with a navigation-related crash fix, so it is worth installing after it reaches your device.

Conclusion

Garmin Edge 1040 Software Version 31.30 is a focused stability release. By fixing a crash during location search, it makes a key navigation workflow more dependable for Edge 1040 riders.
