• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Whose directions did you follow to initially pair the phone to the Zumo? If you followed the Garmin Instructions and the steps in the settings of your iPhone it should have paired and the pairing will show on each instrument until you delete the pairing from each one.
 
Any chance the two devices are up to date with their OS? It sounds like the phone remembered the pairing but the Zumo didn't. What is the advantage of pairing? Music? I thought the Garmin units could have loaded music.

Have no problem pairing the 1st time but after that when Garmin is turned off will not pair until I remove my phone from the list and re-pair. Iphone is new last week and says it’s up to date. Garmin was update yesterday

I use it for calls. It always worked with android and I’m told it works with iPhone. Does work when connected
 
If I understand you correctly you pair the phone to the Zumo so you can use the phone app on the Zumo, correct? If I am correct I suggest you contact Garmin and explain the problem. I've always found them very helpful. If you bought your Zumo with your Spyder Garmin has a separate OEM suppport line, 855-607-2536. You might also check with Apple as there may be some quirk with the iPhone X.

Do you by any chance also have the iPhone X paired with a headset?

I have tried all the above with no help. And no the iPhone X is not paired with anything else.
Right now I’m guessing it is not going the resolved and if I want to use I will have to re-pair it each time
 
I had some of the issues when I first got my iPhoneX. I now have my Zumo paired with my SENA and have and my phone paired to my SENA separately. It works fine auto pairing.
 
I too have my phone paired to my Sena SMH10. That precludes me from using the Zumo 590 phone app. Garmin explained to me that I had to choose which way I wanted to pair, phone to GPS or phone to headset. If I had phone paired to both and tried to use the Zumo phone app neither I nor the party calling or called could could hear eac hother. If I simply answered the phone using the SMH10 the call went fine. I opted to use the phine and SMH10 pairing because I routinely don't use the phone when riding.
