My Sense battery is draining quickly.. it was at 100% this morning and is now at 64%.  I am not using GPS.  I have the watch set up to use the features, phone and text forward nothing more.  What am I missing?

Hi there, @Sparkygirrl. Welcome to the Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided in your post and for making sure you're not using GPS or other features that might be draining your Sense's battery. @lablover55 Thanks for your help! 

As you know, Sense battery should last up to 6 days. However, as with other electronic devices, the battery will depend on the features and how often they're used, such as Spotify app or the Always-On display. While this doesn't mean that you shouldn't use them, please take into consideration the conditions that impact your watch's battery.

That being said, try to change the clock face to one designed by Fitbit and please confirm if you've followed the tips and recommendations to maximize your watch's battery life described here.
