Versa 2 battery is draining quickly

[Mrfons]

Have had my versa 2 for a few years now (2020) and since the beginning I have not had more then 2 days of battery life.. now I have to charge it twice a bay. Yes I'm running it at it's absolute minimum. Any help please.

Hi there, @Mrfons. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided in your post about the issue with your Versa 2.

As you may know, your Versa 2 battery should last up to 6 days. However, as with other electronic devices, the battery will depend on the features and how often they're used, such as the GPS, Spotify app or the Always-On display. While this doesn't mean that you shouldn't use them, please take into into consideration the conditions that impact your watch's battery.

That being said, I'd recommend to change the clock face to one designed by Fitbit and please confirm if you've followed the tips and recommendations to maximize your watch's battery life described here.

I have to leave my app closed unless I am trying to sync it with my Versa 2. Otherwise the Versa runs down really fast.  For the last week I have been having problems syncing even then.

I do have the fitbit watch face, all apps turned off except sleep, heart rate and stepss,brightness at it's lowest and can only see the time when I press the button.
