Rapid apple watch battery drain

ever since ive updated my apple watch to 9.1 (and 9.2)

The battery drain on it has been horrendous,

Dead flat within 4 hours with normal stuff on that used to last all day,

Dead flat within 8 hours on areoplane mode and low power mode,


Have tried updating and resetting as well as unparing resetting watch and phone and repairing,

Running watch with no 3rd party apps etc

Watch battery health is at 88%

Hi Dolanators,


If you haven't done so yet, restart your iPhone and Apple Watch. Although simple, this step can help correct some unexpected issues. Also, make sure your iPhone is running the latest iOS version, as this could help with the issue you've noticed: Apple security updates. If an update is available, be sure to create a backup before installing it.


If the issue persists after going over those steps, reach out to Apple Support directly so they can look into this with you further. They can be contacted here: Get Support, or by calling the most applicable phone number from this list: Contact Apple for support and service.


Cheers.
