Apple Watch battery is quickly draining

Isn’t my Apple Watch SE supposed to last for 18 hours a day? It’s only lasting me 8-11 hours a day on a single charge, I have to charge it twice a day, sometimes even three times a day, It’s maximum capacity is 94%… What now?


SE1 / watchOS 10.3.1

What is required is a forced restart of your Apple Watch. A forced restart is more than just turning your Watch off and on. Observe the battery usage for the next 24 to 72 hours. If there is no improvement you’ll need to unpair the Watch from your iPhone, force restart the Watch and the iPhone and lastly pair the two devices. Battery usage will return to normal in 24 to 72 hours.
