After updated, I fully charged my ionic to 100 percent. Then I turned the watch off and restart right away, now I have to press all three buttons for more than 10 seconds to turn it on which is weird. After the watch turned on the battery dropped from 100 percent to 71 percent. Does anyone have the same problem?

My Ionic also took a nose dive ever since the update, I am having to sync in order to see my steps.

In the past I could see the steps instantly. Heart monitor just came back this morning.

Always having to refresh my WiFi. what a nuisance!!!

By saying it had nothing to do with the update is total BS, especially after so many people have reported the problem started right after the update.
