Watch battery

When using gps my Apple Watch battery will fall from day 50%. Down to 10%. I click low power mode but the watch reboots and when it comes back on the mileage is incorrect as it just works out a straight line from where the watch went off to when it came back on.


The battery on 10% will last a long time so it’s like an error causing this to occur. If I put the watch on charge after not long the % showed as 75% when it was 10% say 10 mins before. The watch does not charge this quick.


For some reason there is an error on the watch that’s causing the battery % to be incorrect and starting the 10% warning ?

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
