Charge 5 battery draining quickly

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Like many of posts below, my Charge 5 (not even 2 years old yet) is draining its batter in hours rather than days for absolutely no reason. My customer service rep did his best to be helpful, but the “fix” he was told to give me hasn’t helped. Unless a serious fix comes soon (likely a corrective update), my permanent fix may be to get a fitness tracker from a different brand, unfortunately. This is a pretty drastic issue as I’m not buying a new fitness tracker every 20 months.
