Hi there WJK2828,
We certainly understand wanting to be able to fully charge your Apple Watch. Let’s look into this together. Is your Apple Watch updated to watchOS 7? If so, go to the Settings app on your Apple Watch, then tap Battery > Battery Health. In this area, there should be a feature named ‘Optimized Battery Charging’. Disable this feature and see if you are now able to charge your iPhone fully to 100% again.
This has more information about Optimized Battery Charging on your Apple Watch:

Please reach back out if you have any other questions or concerns.
Cheers!
