Hello shermanss,


It sounds like you have some concerns with your Apple Watch battery life after the last update of watchOS. We'd like to help.


First, take a look over this guide, which discusses what you can expect from your Apple Watch battery: Apple Watch battery. Let us know if your expectations for battery life compared to your usage, matches close to what is documented in that article. If it does not, continue below please.


Are you experiencing any other issues related to the battery, such as the battery percentage not updating, or the watch shutting down unexpectedly?


Let's also have you check the health of your Apple Watch battery by going to Settings > Battery > Battery Health, from the watch directly. Let us know what percentage you see there.


Lastly, please review this article next Apple Watch Battery and Performance - Apple Support. See if your battery life improves after following the suggestions under the sections titled, 'How to maximize battery performance' and 'Battery and performance management'.


Keep us posted on the results, and have a good rest of your day.
