Question

Battery draining real fast after pairing up with wireless earphones

Hello,

It is the second time I use my Apple Watch to jog and the second time that the same problem occurs.

I paired up my yurbuds eaphones wireless with my apple watch and jogged for 50 minutes, after I recharged the watch to 100%, the battery started to drain like 10% every 20 minutes.

On the first time I had to pair Apple Watch and iPhone again, and then this time after finding my earphones on bluetooth I noticed that the same problem happened.

If I check the battery usage on Apple Watch, it doesn't appear, it says that it will only appear if the watch is fully charged.

I think I had to pair with my iPhone already 10 times since I bought it last month, is it possible that my watch is broken?

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.3

Streaming audio via bluetooth uses quite a bit of power. The battery in the watch is very small. What you're seeing is to be expected.

But that doesn't happen while I'm listening to music.

I only listened during my exercise.

The battery is draining while I'm heading to work, without listening to music from the Watch.

Hi Eduardo

If you have been using a third-party app (eg Strava) to record workouts, check whether there is presently a paused activity within the app. If there is, end the activity via that app on your watch.

Nope, I'm not using third apps. The only ones that I use is Waterminder and MyFitnessPal.

I use Exercise app.

Most of the apps I didn't install on the watch and I only receive notifications from Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp and Swarm.
