Poor Battery Life Since Last Update

[PeterH62]

I have noticed that my Sense 2 is struggling to hold its battery charge recently. I charged it up when I woke yesterday morning and found it had unexpectedly lost its charge overnight so didn’t record my sleep data. Same thing this morning where it recorded up until 5am then stopped so is now on charge yet again.

Not sure if it’s tied into the last update but it’s certainly syruggling more now than previously.

My device is only 8 months old and has not suffered any water damage or knocks. As it’s meant to be useable for swimming i’m not sure how water damage could be an issue anyway but have seen this mentioned in other similar posts. It’s not been used or subjected to water anyway so that’s not the problem.

I have noted the suggestions for extending battery life but already follow many of those. It is a bit strange though that some of the features that are suggested to be turned off are actually some of the reasons why we buy these newer devices 🤷🏻‍:male_sign:.

 Any and all advice appreciated.

 Thanks

I’m experiencing the same issue. It keeps happening. I’ve checked settings and restarted.

Hi @PeterH62 @LKoman - have a look at battery drainng quickly

This will help you locate if it is a watch fault or something else.

I restarted the watch and charged it again and atm it seems to be holding ok. Is there any downside to removing the watch from charge before it reaches 100%.

@PeterH62 - actually charging to 100% is not really necessary as it can take anything from 15 minutes to an hour to go from 99 to 100% when you could be wearing it instead
