'Poorly made, AI-generated watch faces will consume everything': Garmin's Connect IQ store has been hit by an 'enormous influx' of submissions, and Garmin users could soon be grappling with a wave of AI slop
“we have gotten an enormous influx of app submissions in the last month, with no signs of slowing down”
What happened
Garmin's app store for its watches is so swamped with new submissions that reviews which used to take a day or two now take up to 13 days. Garmin hasn't said why, but its own forum users have a theory, and one asked for upload limits before AI-made watch faces consume everything.
