Versa 3 battery is draining quickly

[CWJ89]

I have had my fitbit versa 3 for around 18 months. I've never had a problem with it & have only ever had to charge it once every 6-7 days. My activities have not changed and in the last month I'm having to charge it every other day. Has this happened to anyone else? V. Disappointing & feels like a push to get a new one

Hi there, @CWJ89. Thanks for stopping by in the Community Forums and sharing the details about the issue with your Versa 3. I understand why you're feeling disappointed. 

By any chance, are you using Snore Detection? If so, please note that the Snore Detection feature does impact your device’s battery, so we recommend charging your device to at least 40% before going to bed. For more information, see How can I use my Fitbit device to detect snoring and noise levels while I sleep? 

However, I'd like to share with you that the battery life will depend on how frequent certain features are used in general. Because you're using an Always-On Display clock face, I'd recommend changing the clock face to another one made by Fitbit and monitor your it's behavior in the next day. Additionally, try turning off this setting by opening the Settings app on your watch > Display > Always-on display.

Hope this helps.
