We report further observations of the transient Swift J2058+0516 (Krimm et al. 2011, ATEL #3384; Greiner et al. 2011, ATEL #3385, Rau et al. 2011, ATEL #3390) by Swift and GROND. Swift J2058.4+0516 has now faded below detectability in the Swift/BAT (15-50 keV). The last significant detection was for the 4-day period 30 May - 2 June 2011 (0.0022 ± 0.0004 ct/s/cm2; ~10 mCrab). The 1-sigma upper limit for 10 June 2011 is 0.003 ct/s/cm2. We obtained 4 Swift/XRT observations over the last 10 days, sometimes stretching over several orbits.
