Apple Watch high data usage
Beginning June 20th, I have noticed that my Apple Watch battery isn’t lasting quite as long as it usually does. I then noticed that during my daily run, my battery is definitely draining much faster than usual (I run without my phone). On one run of just over an hour, with full charge at the beginning of the run, I was down to 8%. After some digging, I noticed that my watch was using an unusually large amount of cellular data during the time of my runs between 75MB to 150MB. I have to assume there is some data usage going on even when I’m not using the watch on cellular, I just cannot “see” that data usage, which may explain the drop in battery life. I see that the data usage is under System Services > General. I cannot think of anything that has changed on the watch around June 20th that would cause this problem. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to get this under control? Thanks.
