Hi,
After updating the Apple Watch 7 to WhatchOS 8.5 it stopped fast charging with Belkin BoostCharge PRO. It used to charge very fast and now is very very very slow (about 5% in one hour). Any idea of how to solve this issue?
Thanks!
Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 8
I can also confirm, the boost pro stopped charging my Series 7 altogether after updating to watchOS 8.5. It’ll charge normally on Apple chargers, but the Belkin fast charger recently released no longer works. Considering the absolute desolate landscape that third party fast charging for Series 7 is currently, how quickly Apple releases a fix for this is critical for Belkin and others to keep customer trust.
Quick follow-up for anyone who’s experienced this issue. It appears to have been resolved by Apple’s most recent watchOS updates. The Belkin charger is reliably fast-charging my watch again.
I tried this and it didn't change anything. Still took 2 hours to charge my watch from 20% to 100%.
Not for me. My brand new Apple Watch 7 running 8.6 and brand new Belkin BoostCharge PRO took 2 hours to charge from 20% to 100%.
WatchOS 8.6 seems to have fixed this issue (for most, if not all).
Has anyone tried WatchOS 8.7 yet?
