It's probably to do with a smart watch or something that satnavers don't give a toss about.  |

| Mine updated fine this morning also. Nice software update came with it for my Drivesmart 55 this morning to 9.1 which included a few bug fixes, including routing fixes and mobile camera alert fix where now it actually stays on for a few seconds like my ancient old Nuvi55 did instead of flashing up and off for a split second which was useless, I did email Garmin about the latter a few months ago to see if they could put a fix out, I wonder if they had a few people complain about that one to change it. |

Problem is that Express is getting too big, as well as handling all the updates for On the road devices it also covers On the trail, Marine, Cycling, smart watches, fitness trackers etc. Most updates have no effect on the folks here but they are there so Express will work with the latest Garmin smart watch etc etc.
They really should have split it into separate programs

They seem to have stopped publishing the release notes too - nothing since 7.0.1

Now up to 7.1.3.0
Pop-up box seems to ask you to tick to agree to terms and conditions - don't think I recall seeing this before, nor the option where to install the program
The changelog above relates to 7.1.2 on GE's forum and 7.1.3 will be added here once posted by Garmin.

The website download has probably not been updated yet.
I updated via GE. The App notified me it was available. Use your administrator account if you have problems. |
