iOS update 13.1.3 is causing activity sync issues within Garmin Connect Mobile App.

Solution: I suggest using Garmin Express until there is an update released from Garmin.

Garmin is aware of this issue (https://forums.garmin.com/apps-software/mobile-apps-web/f/garmin-connect-mobile-ios/193204/attn-ios-users-with-issues-after-updating-to-ios-13)

Update Nov 5:

iOS v13.2 appears to be allowing Sync. I disconnected the Garmin watch in the Apple iPhone Setting>Bluetooth menu, then re-paired the watch using Garmin Connect.

Many users have been reporting a restart issue with the F3 family (F3, F3HR, D2 Bravo) while in an activity. Cause: Watch memory is full and the current activity is causing the watch to restart. Solution: 1.) Keep the activity history cleared. First Sync the watch. Then from the watch, Long press the up-button at the Main Menu> History> Options> Delete All Activities. Do this Weekly/Monthly. 2.) Keep one CIQ app slot free to allow more memory for the activity FIT data. This will keep your F3/F3hr running smoothly.
