Hi, I've had my Fitbit Blaze about 4 months now and have never had a problem with the better until this week.

I know battery like decreases over time but this was a very drastic change from a good 4-5 days to 1 day!

I fully charged my Fitbit and it lasted about 36 hours, I then turned off notifications, all day sync and silent alarms to see if this would help but it' actually got worse, it now lasts less than 24 hours.

Is this normal? If so I'm really not impressed - it has been dying mid-exercise, resulting in false stats which is really annoying! I don't use the programs on it, just track my day in general and one/two exercises.

Interestingly, I've had the same problem. They sent me a replacement and it got worse...only lastinh 1.5 days. I'm trying to figure out why we are having such DRAMATIC battery drain after these latest updates. My blaze worked fantastically until the last 2 updates. And still NO 3rd party notifications. Anybody else??

@Soldiergirl

 

I'm definitely not having this issue. Even though all notifications from texting, email and calendar apps are on in the settings, on the actual watch they are off unless I need them to be on. 

 

It still lasts 5 days, 6 if I wanted to push it.
