Fast power loss on Watch 6

Watch charges as normal to 100%. However it looses all power in 5 hours. Tried rebooting, draining and then re charging battery all to no avail. Battery health is 85%. Anyone got a solution please?

Try a forced restart of the watch and that helps sometimes;

  • Depress and hold the crown and side button until the Apple logo appears. Nothing is lost

Next would be to unpair the watch and re setup the watch. Sometimes setting up as new works better than restoring from backup


My S6 watch would do that and a forced restart help some times, as did restoring from backup but sometimes I had to setup as new.
