Before the last update my battery would easily last all day and night. I’d even have enough to keep it going until the afternoon. Since updating last night to watchOS 10.1.1, the battery on my Series 8 has been awful. I’ve not used GPS or cellular and had my phone with me all day. Anyone else had this issue? I know I only charged it to 88% this morning but I can’t remember the last time I had to top it up in the evening before a workout.

    My Apple Watch 6 battery had started draining a little faster than normal. I use it a lot all day long. I turned off Always On and it started lasting all day and into night again. Updated to 10.1.1 2 days ago in hopes I could use Always On again. Now my battery shows 100% at 8 am and dead at 11 am, 3 hours later! Can’t use it at all.

      Similar boat. Slightly longer live with my Series 6. 100% at 01:00, 35% by noon.

      Last week before being forced to update, I would be 80% at 01:00 and I’d be around 30-35% by 22:00 (10pm) depending on level of activity.
