Charging Issue after updating to WatchOS 8.3

Has anyone else had issues trying to charge their watch after the update? My watch will charge for 5 minutes and will stop charging while still being in the charger.

Apple Watch Series 6

It looks like watchOS 8.4 was just released, and the bug fix summary shows: " watchOS 8.4 includes bug fixes and important security updates, including: Some chargers may not work as expected."


So while we never saw anything official about this published by Apple until now, we know they really did introduce a problem in watchOS 8.3.


Hope this fixes it for everybody!
