Updated to the latest Ionic firmware and it has halved my battery life, I have even turned off the screen auto lighting to save battery, not used it as anything other than a watch/ activity/HRM, no music or gps tried a reboot etc, no change. Is it rhe new SP02 monitoring thats draining the battery? Any suggestions to get it back up to the pre update battery life?

Cheers

@jakecutter A warm welcome to the Fitbit Community. Thank you for getting in touch about this. 

I appreciate the troubleshooting tried prior to posting. If the SpO2 clock face is installed on your Ionic, you may have to charge your Fitbit Ionic more often when using it, learn more about it by checking this article. 

Additionally check these tips to extend your Fitbit device's battery life. 

Let me know how it goes. I'll be around if you have any additional questions.
