Versa 3 battery drain

‎01-17-2026 01:10

New post as original closed. Over night my versa 3 battery life went for multi-day to less than a day. This is due to a firmwear update to fix a battery overheating issue on a limited number of versa 3 watches. An offer of $50 compensation offered for affected devices but the link to register for this doesn't work. My watch is not fit for purpose with this fix as I would need to charge it twice a day. Help!

Hi @MarioSFitbit

Thanks for the reply. Can confirm the app is up to date, I've tried all the battery-extending tips and the watch has been restarted. These haven't improved the battery life - the only thing that made some difference was changing the clock face from SpO2 to regular.
