I have had a Fitbit Versa for around 14mths now and it has always worked for about 3-4 days before I need to charge it. However, in the last few days, I've noticed the battery has started draining very quickly and needs charging within 24hrs. For example, I took it off the charger at 100% at 10:30pm last night and by 8:30am this morning it was down to 65% even though I do not have any notifications at night or use a screen wake or an alarm.

 

Please note, in general I do not use the screen wake feature at all, I have always only charged by Fitbit when the battery is showing as low and charging is done at room temperature. The only real features I use are the heart rate monitor, step count and exercise tracking (which is about 1hr a day on average). I do not use the alarm or music app.

 

Quite frustrated as I have not changed how I use my Fitbit so am unsure why this issue is suddenly occurring. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve had my Versa for about a year and the battery has always been fine. This last week the same thing has happened. The first time It happened my Versa went completely dead. Since that I have to charge every day to just use my Versa. All I have on is heart rate, exercise, sleep and steps. Nothing else is used. I doubt I will ever buy a Fitbit again. It’s far too problematic.
