This needs to be mentioned over and over until Apple fixes the battery drain.

Apple is not checking Reddit for feedback and advice

The more its talked about the better chance it has of being addressed.

Same on my AW U 2 : comparing to previous versions.

Yuuuup. It was great until I activated data, I wonder if that plays a part in this bug

Try powering the watch off and on per the instructions on the Apple site. My battery life was abysmal after the last 2 updates, but power cycling my watch fixed the problem both times.

I almost sent it for battery replacement, luckily I did a factory reset and it solved the problem.

Happened to me recently. Deleting Clockology and Clockology faces solved my problem. I think that is because it is constantly transferring info and watchos 10 sped it up. You can also try deleting any app like this

Yup. Used to be able to go 2 full days on a single charge, now I need to take it off early to charge it before sleeping.

I turned off my watch when it was at 33% battery life. When I turned it back on and charged it the battery drained rapidly after that and then it was shutting off when it got to 33%. My watch somehow got tricked into thinking 33% was 0%. This was a couple years ago so I can’t exactly remember how I fixed it but I found the solution via Google and it’s been perfect ever since.

I don’t get it…if I’m looking at this right it’s gone for 16 hours and only drained roughly half way? Thats good, no?
