Why is my Apple Watch 8 battery draining faster after the watchOS 11 update? I updated my Watch (an 8) to Watch OS 11 as soon as the update was released, and the battery now drops to 10% in less than 6 hours. It formerly went to no less than 40-50% in 12-14 hours.

Give the update a few days to settle down. Report back.
