Apple Watch battery drain after Update

I noticed my Apple Watch battery draining very quickly after updating it to 9.5.1. Anyone else? My battery usually lasts 2 days.

I have had the same problem a few months ago (after a watchOS update), and again last week when upgrading to watchOS 10. In both cases, I solved it like this (see also my previous posts much above) :


  • Un-pair the watch
  • Re-pair the watch
  • Restart the iPhone
  • Restart the watch


It works, but it is a hassle : I lost the watch configuration each time and had to do it again by hand.


It is obviously a software problem, it affects many people and has lasted for a few months at least. What is Apple doing ?
