I’ve had my Sense 2 for less than a month (ordered on 10/20 and received on 10/25) and it dies so so quickly. I usually charge it in the morning while I shower and by the time I wake up the next day, I’m already getting a battery low notification. Is this something that can be fixed?

Depends if you have all your notifications etc on. Mine comes up it needs charging every couple of days which is annoying. I have my notifications off but use the exercise feature once a day for an hour. The sense  is so much better than the sense 2. I for one wish i hadnt upgraded…. Sorry downgraded

@samkathleen  - From other forums, there are reports that the Fitbit app GPS is always on now which is both draining the battery on the Smartwatch, in this case our Fitbit Sense 2 device and your phone.  I always use my Fitbit with the highest levels of battery drain but still could get pretty decent battery life.  My older Charge 5 I could get 5 days + of battery life typically when needed and my Sense could get 3-4 days of battery life.  However as the Sense got older, my Sense was getting only about 1.5 days of battery life.  I recently switched to a Sense 2 with the new app and at max I get about 1.5 days of battery life.  I essentially try to find time during every day to charge it continuously so that I don't get stuck with no power at all during a day.  This is kind of a pain because I now have a tendency to charge it overnight 2-3 times a week which messes up my Sleep Scores if I don't remember to do a "boost" charge sometime during the day.
