After updating my Nokia 6 to Android 8.1 ANT connectivity is lost, I can't no longer connect to devices like heartrate sensors etc.
Has anyone found out how to fix this issue?
Nokia support wasn't helpful, they probably don't know what ANT is and how it works :-(.

Can I downgrade to get it working ?
On next upgrade they might turn off the WiFi or maybe screen.
Try downloading ANT Radio Service app from playstore.
Of course, I did. I've checked all with Ant tester app. It shows that the firmwares does not support it.
This service is previously pre-installed in most of the android devices.
now we have to manually download it from playstore.
Search for ANT Radio Service app from playstore.
your problem will be solved.
;-)
of course I have ANT Radio Service installed. I hope that someone from HMD is reading this so it can be fixed in future release.
I have spent days on Chat to Nokia support but they want to pass the problem on to Ant+, to Android, or to the retailer that I bought the phone from. They will not try to understand the issue or take any responsibility themselves. They even suggest that I use bluetooth devices to replace my Ant+ devices. They will also not give me a telephone number to call saying support is given bt Chat and email only ! Finally they ask me to wait until next week and contact them again, as the only one person in Nokia that can answer my questions is on holiday !
these 3 errors are logged when I try to use ant:
I think the silence from Nokia/HMD is indicative that this is not an important issue for them.
