Watch OS 7.01 update

My series 4 watch battery has drained in less than 5 hrs after the update to OS 7.01 this morning. This has never happened before. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello Pierre05.


It sounds like you're experiencing poor battery life on your Apple Watch since updating to watchOS 7. We'd be glad to look into that with you today.


To confirm, was the Apple Watch charged to 100% prior to discharging within the 5 hours that you mentioned? Check out If you're missing Workout GPS routes or Health data after updating to iOS 14 and watchOS 7, which details a multitude of different Apple Watch issues including issues with shorter than expected battery life. We're pretty confident that'll help get this solved for you.


All the best.
