Battery drain on watch series 7

Please let us know what happens at the Genius Bar. I have tried everything recommended and nothing works.

I have the 6 and I have the same problem. Gonna make a Genius Bar appointment and ask for a replacement.

What happens when you try to update your watch?

What iOS version are your running on your iPhone? Did you update your iPhone to iOS 15.4?

And you may well need to do what IdrisSeabright suggested above.

I tried the tip of unpair/pair and that seemed to help considerably.

I have a Watch 7. If I don't do any workouts, it lasts well over 24 hours, closer to 30. I have all the standard functions enabled, including cellular.

These articles are not helpful in figuring out why the battery is draining so quickly on our watches. I just got mine 3 days ago and the battery drains so quickly and I dont have many settings turned on (I only use a few). And I get maybe 6-8 hours of charge a day before I need to add it back to the charger.

There’s no reason that we can express,,, I think everybody’s hoping by addressing your concerns on here Apple will do something about it and neither has something to do with their software for the battery but they choose

Same problem here. Very disappointed. 7 Series battery dropped from 100% to 77% in less than 2 hours with just a few text message alerts. My 3 Series would last about 26-28 hours without needing a charge. This is completely unacceptable. I don't know if I should bring it to the Genius Bar or if they are just going to send me packing because obviously it is not a problem they can duplicate on the spot.

Hello! I notice this on my watch 7. I have 98% in the morning. I walk about 6 km. I get home at 12 with 90%. Then i use youtube on my iphone with the watch on my hand. I see the little “now playing” indicator on the watch at the begining but after 2 minutes i put the watch on my desk and i keep watching youtube. At 16 i want to get out again and i notice that i have 50-60% battery. How is this possible!? Any solutions?

please excuse mu english!!

It was my first apple watch. In the past i had samsung gear when i was on android. Then when i come back to iphone i used Honor watch gs pro. It is 100% compatible with iphone, except you cant buy watchfaces. But for the 150-200 euro you get 2-3 weeks with one charge with calls, oxygen level, etc etc.

In my opinion it is NOT normal to pay 500 euro or more, to deactivate everything for just one day. And by the way one day in Apple opinion is 18 hours. Since i was little i know that one day has 24 hours.

You should always buy the device which best meets your needs. I get all the battery life on a daily basis I need with my Apple Watch Series 7. My watch has been on my wrist since 8 AM this morning and it's now close to noon and battery shows 97% remaining.

My Apple 7 watch drains it’s battery very quickly. Well, it’s almost noon and the battery is at 79%. and I haven’t done anything yet. Why would Apple give you options and you have to turn off some options to keep charge? My Fitbit lasted for 5 days with all options! Come on Apple! Fix this!

Asking Apple to do anything here on this user to user only forum is like whispering into the wind.

I Have phone Apple many times about this and they will not accept that the Watch has been checked thoroughly by repair centre and my wife’s series 5 and mine have charged on all the old series Apple chargers until when we updated to 8.3 her series 5 carried on as before mine has absolutely not since that day.

even if I called them again they will say again I must have my Watch remotely diagnosed for hours as they did before.

Thanks for replying but not an option
