So I updated my AWS8 from OS 9.6 to OS 10.1.1 believing the battery drain issue was resolved and I would be safe... turns out I am now experiencing drainage where I can barely get 6 hours before hitting 15%. Previously I could go the full day using it for music, workouts and having always on display and background refresh on; at the end of the day I'd still have over 40%. I know it takes a couple days for the watch to optimize the update, so I did give it 4 days before I started to panic. I've tried force reboots and unpairing to no avail. I did submit an issue to apple, since I know without them being bombarded they won't really resolve the issue.
During my unpairing/pairing I was given an option to restore from an old backup from a couple months ago, I believe it was OS 9.6 and it was from the same watch if not it was may AWSE1. My question now is, what happens if I unpair and restore from that backup as a fix? What will I be losing?
Yes, Apple is only working on damage control and the users who have paid so much money for the products have to only deal with their mediocrity and just compromise and express their frustration on online forums.
