Hi, My series 5 watch has become useless after upgrading to the latest Watch OS version. How soon will the patch come out to fix this?
This is really affecting my health tracking as the battery doesn’t last for more than 7 hours. Earlier, the battery used to last for about 24 hours between charging. Please help!
Apple Watch Series 5
Generally just after a operating system upgrade the OS is doing housekeeping that affects the battery.
This generally settles down after a few days.
If not, then try power cycling the Apple Watch and the iPhone.
If that has no effect, try unpairing the Apple Watch from the iPhone, then pair them together again.
Finally there have been reports of some complications consuming excessive battery. You could try disabling different complications to see if that solves the problem.
