Hello, recently my Blaze won’t hold its charge. I charge, receive notifications, battery is full and “misses you”, then within an hour or two is shut off and battery is dead. I charge (it shows red battery), get the full charge notification and within an hour is completely dead. Same thing with overnight. Charge before bed, dies before morning. I turned off the auto sync and notifications and no change. I think my Blaze is dying but I’ve only had it like a year- if that. Are there known defects? Who should I contact regarding this issue?
Thanks so much!

I'm having the same problem (as are other Blaze users in the last few days). I have also followed all the tips on extending battery life and good charging practice. There must be something wrong with latest app update causing this.

Hey guys!
im the exact same, i charge mines overnight so i have enough charge for a full day at work. Used to be able to hold charge for about 3 days now i can barely put it on my wrist before it is dead at 3:(
Makes me sad. I've tried all the tips, did you's get anymore further forward?
Thanks
Update. I online chatted with a member of the support group. She instructed me to charge the phone and sync 5-6 times through the day which gives them a good record of the battery. I have done that for the last 2 days and reported to the ticket I received this evening after it died again and is in the charging cradle. So, no resolution yet. Maureen
