I seem to have one problem after another with this watch. The recent update fixed the original issue of the back button not working but now I have battery drain issues. I’m lucky if my battery last 24 hours. I’ve tried all the tips I can find on the forum and nothing has helped. I’ve turned off and back on, I’ve done a soft reset, a factory reset, turned off the all  day sync. I don’t have a custom watch face and I’ve turned off everything I can think of that might use excess battery.

Mine also went from 4-5 days on a charge to 2. I charged mine two nights ago and I'm at 26% right now. Is there any resolution to this??

Be careful!!! This is what happened to my Versa before it completely died (took about two weeks MAX of me having to charge the battery every other day). Mine actually ending up dying TODAY. I called and Fitbit is useless and basically said that I’m SOL because their product warranty is only a year and they can’t guarantee how long the products are going to last for. They gave me a discount code to buy a new product. Based on the rest of this forum, as well as the actions of the Supervisor, I bought an Apple Watch and closed my Fitbit account. Might be better off doing the same! Hope it works out for you guys.

This just stared happening to me too.  The bluetooth connection started dropping about 2 weeks ago and now the battery drain.  Somebody's asking for a Garmin for Fathers Day.

My Versa Lite battery went from 4+ days to less than 1! The sleep tracker is also not working anymore. I tried everything suggested for troubleshooting and no luck. This is my fourth Fitbit (Two Surges and Two Versa Lites). Time to switch to Apple Watch I think.
