Charge 6 - Syncing issues after lastest update

I have a charge 6 that is just over 12 months old and since I did the update beginning of May my phone hasn’t sync in the app, it has lost Bluetooth and I can’t see, to get it to reset.

I have forgotten the watch in Bluetooth and tried to repair - couldn’t find it

I have deleted the app and tried to start again - it can’t locate the phone even when it is charging and next to it

I have tried to factory reset my phone and that’s not working

I seem to have a battery with a power flash that keeps appearing at the top of my phone which I have read means it is not connect to my phone 

All was fine until I did the system update now I have a watch that no longer works, along with 3 sports straps that I have bought and it’s only 13 months old

This is the 3rd watch I’ve had … hoping for some ideas so it can be fixed and I don’t have to bite the bullet and go to a chunky Apple Watch
