Hello, 

 

my battery on the sense drains twice as fast after updating zu OS 5.1 and activating wrist calling. Anyone knows what to do to stop the sense from losing so much battery?

 

Thanks

Hi @EricTune and @MOCarter, great to see you in the community.

 

The battery drain you are seeing is likely due to the spO2 app that was pre installed during the update. If you aren't interested in tracking your spO2 levels during the night, I'd recommend uninstalling it. 

 

With the app installed my device loses 10% during the night, without the app installed it's cut to about 5%.
