I bought a new Fitbit Sense, a couple of months ago. At first the charge lasted the expected and advertised 6 days. Now it's down to 2 days, and sometimes it's more like 1.5 days. The only "smart" app that I turned on was Weather, and I've since turned it off, in hopes of improving battery life. I agree with the IOS poster that said what is the point of having a Smart Watch when you have to turn everything off. I'd hate to see what would happen if I enabled anything.

Hi, @RASmith0185 welcome to the community, it very much depends on what you are using your "Sense" for. GPS and "Snore Report" are notorious juice hogs. This article may offer you a way forward Can I extend my Fitbit device's battery life? 

Let us know how you get on.

I've had my Sense for less than a year and it no longer holds charge. One of the pins is stuck in.
