Watch won’t hold charge
Hi, my Apple Watch will fully charge but then it dies an hour or 2 after. Do I need to get the battery replaced? It’s a couple years old.

To understand Apple Watch performance and its relation to your battery, see:

“Battery life” is the amount of time your device runs before it needs to be recharged. “Battery lifespan” is the amount of time your battery lasts until it needs to be replaced. Maximize both and you’ll get the most out of your Apple devices, no matter which ones you own. See the "Tips for Apple Watch" section in:

Thank you. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it seems the issue is actually not that the battery drains. The watch turns off and won’t turn back on unless I put it on a charger. Once it’s on the charger I can see the battery is still fully charged. Ideas?
