Out of nowhere, my watch ran out of battery life three consecutive days now, down to 10% when I've only worn it 11 hours. I turned off almost all notifications yesterday thinking that was draining the battery, and it didn't help. Battery Health claims it's 83%. What is wrong?

“Battery life” is the amount of time your device runs before it needs to be recharged. “Battery lifespan” is the amount of time your battery lasts until it needs to be replaced. Maximize both and you’ll get the most out of your Apple devices, no matter which ones you own. See the "Tips for Apple Watch" section in:
