Had a prompt to update on my Watch. Updated. Watch usually lasts a full day on a full charge. After updating it went from full to dead in a little over 6 hours. Charged the Watch and checked battery settings. Simplewear was at the top of List.

Rebooted Watch, fully charged and wore it yesterday. Battery dropped to 15% before bedtime (I usually get to round 65% this time). Gave it a charge to 90% before putting it on to sleep. Woke up this morning Watch was dead (checked settings after giving charge). Battery lasted 6 hours with Simplewear being at the top of list consuming most Battery. I've un-installed for now and will see if the app was root cause but can't think of anything else that would affect my battery since this was the only update I had over the weekend.

I'm looking into the battery issue. To help check, could you confirm if you are using any tiles or complications/widgets? If so, which ones?

Thank you for the reply. I was using the tile with the quick settings. I deleted for now because the battery drain was pretty bad. Please let me know if you need more info.

Thank you 🙏

Please check the latest beta and let me know if you are still seeing the battery drain quickly
