Apple watch Battery drain after 7.3.1 update
After update of my series 5 apple watch, I see that the battery drains considerably faster.
Am I the only one?
Then Apple is not the company I though it was.
Anyway, let's see on 7.4 version next week...
Question marked as
After any IOS or OS update I find that a few forced restarts both your iPhone and your watch are needed.
First try force restarting your iPhone by whatever method your version calls for. As soon as you see the Apple logo force restart your watch by holding in the crown and side button for 10 seconds till you see the Apple logo then release. Log into your iPhone and wait for your watch to boot, then log into it.
Failing that I'd try unpairing the watch from your iPhone then pairing it back setting it up as new.

Yep, in the same boat. Barely get 10 or 11 hours now. Use to getting 18+. Latest update sucks (life out of my watch). Hopefully Apple will issue a patch.
Same experience here. What are you doing Apple??
Me too
I have the same problem after the latest update. Will try the recommendations but this is a big problem watch battery didn't last 5 hours and died at work. The battery life monitor says 91%.
Hello together,
Has anybody tested the 7.5 already? It was released today!!
Mine too
My battery drain started after 7.6.1. This is rendering my watch useless. I have tried all of the remedies but with no success. Very frustrating.

Hello everyone,
Apple just published 7.6.1 a couple of days ago. Did someone try it out? Was the fix included?
