Apple Watch 6 battery draining in Watch OS 7.6.2

Yeah, this update has not resolved the battery drain issue on my Watch Series 4. Not sure whether Apple is paying attention, but you just lost an Apple Watch customer. If you'd fixed this issue (which has been WELL publicized and reported) in this update I'd probably have ended up buying one of the upcoming generation, but I'm sick and tired of having paid $800 for a beta program - and I'm not only referring to this particular battery drain issue. It's simply inexcusable. In all seriousness: anyone have a good recommendation for an alternative smart watch? Or perhaps the Oura Ring?

APPLE: THIS DEFECT WARRANTS AN OFF-SCHEDULE PATCH. Yet you missed it in your regular update after who-knows-how-many complaints. Lack of response on a product-killing bug is not what I expect after having given you my money for so many decades.

This is ridiculous! These products are too expensive foe them not to even try to fix they issue they caused. I’m not inclined to buy a new one either more like jump ship.

my daughter SE is not having this issue just my 4. My sisters 3 is also not having the issue.

I agree all Apple products are expensive and I told myself too I am not going to get a new watch. I’ve got the series 3 and alittle over a year and really got it for when I’m at work and can’t be on my phone.

I am very Frustrated that Apple is aware a lot of their consumers that own the watch has had issues with the battery and still can’t fix it.

The battery would last a alittle over a day into two days without me charging it and now just plain horrible I’ll be lucky if I get a good 5 hour battery life.

And my device is the IPhone 11 Pro Max so no other issues except this darn BATTERY!!!!

APPLE PLS FIX THE BATTERY DRAINING ISSUE FOR US ASAP!

I hate to pile on but yeah, ever since updating my Series 6 to 7.6.2, my battery goes from 100% to 10% in just under 10 hours. I've changed NOTHING with regards to how I use the watch and I've not added/deleted any apps.

I charged my watch overnight, put it on at 6:30 am this morning and now at 9:15 am, it's down to 78%. It's these kinds of issues that make me hesitant to update the OS on any device - regardless if it's a security update or not.

still the same issue even when updating to Watch OS 8, so I’m assuming Apple doesn’t care about our complaining and just going to continue with whatever is killing our watches or it’s a battery issue and Apple doesn’t want to hand out free batteries????

Good luck with that. I sent by phone in for the battery to be replaced since that is what the tech I talked to said was the problem. I got the phone back quickly which was great but the note attaches said they couldn’t duplicate the problem and sent it back with no action taken.

a totally awesome experience considering the expense for this watch and the fact that a new battery costs a $92. Now I wait to have them put the money back into my account. Great customer service Apple!!!

I did not have any issues with battery in watch os 7.5, or 7.6, but since I went to 7.6.1, 50% of the life is gone. I have to charge twice a day now instead of once

Not working. 2hours - 22% battery drain. :(

Mine fixed itself with doing nothing after 4 days cheers

Exactly the same here ~ 50% of battery life gone since the last update watchOS7.6.1.

Well it fixed itself after a few days as I posted above but lasted for all of 1 day. Now it’s back to the battery drain that occurs after this last update. Apple please fix this!

Agreed! This is such an inconvenience and very frustrating.

I turned off my watch because it's useles. The battery max capacity fell down from 91% to 86% in a few days. I can't use it. I'am affraid of it will kill my watch.

Hey bro, can u fix it ? I have problem same you
