Watch os 8.5 my series 7 charges slow

I've updated to watch os 8.5, and still my series 7 takes over 5 hours to charge. It was not doing this before. I’ve restarted my watch various times to no avail.

Yeah, sorry but this does NOT help.

Yea he issue is with os 8.5 not allowing the use of 3rd party chargers that are AUTHORIZED by apple.


I paid 150.00 for the belkin up 3-1 mag safe at the apple store because it was promoted BY APPLE.


now it doesn’t work. So, someone in tech department needs to follow up and look into this. Why would Apple promote and sell a product that bricks after an update?
