Apple Watch Battery Draining Too Fast

Have a SE 2nd Generation watch software updated to 11.6


Literally over night the battery is draining very quickly. Started at a 100% charge and within 2 hours down to 80% charged.


Checked my battery health and looks like it's at 89% capacity.


This is frustrating that this happened suddenly. Thoughts?

Which apps did you use during that time?

Have you been downloading music or other data from the iPhone to the watch?


Did you already try to force restart the watch by pressing the Digital Crown and the Side button together for at least 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?


If this does not work, erasing the watch and setting it up again as a new device would be the next step:

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support
