My Apple Watch has started losing battery so fast on its own even when I don’t raise my wrist or use it. I left the house with 99% and after just 2 hours it had reached 32%! I tried uninstalling most apps and turning off the notifications but it still drains the same amount, what else can be done?
Apple Watch SE, watchOS 10
I ended doing the Apple Support chat and then the phone call BUT my watch seems back to normal and I was finally able to finish the watch update. Some of the things they had me do:
1.) Reset the Network Settings on my phone to refresh the wifi
2.) Hard factory reset my phone and my watch (holding the buttons until the apple appears, turning on the watch first so it was awake when the phone turned on)
3.) Open the update screen on both my phone and watch
4.) And sadly just sit and wait
In total it took about 2-2 1/2 hours for the whole thing once I started talking to the support chat and probably 3 or so hours from what I tried before contacting support. But eventually the bar moved after leaving the phone awake on the update screen.
Having the same issue with my series 9. When tracking workouts it drops from 100% to 0% in less than 4 hours. Totally useless.
How do you factory reset back to the old watch iOS??
This has been happening to me as well. Battery will go down from 99% to 50% in just 2 hours. Generally get 1/2 day out of full charge. So far resetting has not worked.
Does anybody know if Apple has a solution or is working on one?
I don’t wish to Labour this point but my issue is the same as others are experiencing and whilst your solution may have worked for you and others, it hasn’t worked for me.
Same here! BS 🍏! “It Just Works” for a very short amount of time.
Fix this already, please.
My Series 9 just started doing the same ... got it in November and have no issues until now. Were you able to resolve the battery drain? If so, how?
I just got a new Apple Watch and wore it overnight to test out the sleep tracking and it drained from 100% to 61%.
