Apple Watch holding charge for half day only

Anyone else is experiencing this issue, I had no problem with Apple Watch but for past few days it’s not holding the charge for too long. Today it died at 1:00 pm after it was fully charged overnight and around 8:30am it had 85% of battery left. I use to spend whole day with one charge but not anymore. Any recommendations?

To understand Apple Watch performance and its relation to your battery, see:

Apple Watch - Battery - Apple

Apple Watch Battery and Performance - Apple Support


“Battery life” is the amount of time your device runs before it needs to be recharged. “Battery lifespan” is the amount of time your battery lasts until it needs to be replaced. Maximize both and you’ll get the most out of your Apple devices, no matter which ones you own. See the "Tips for Apple Watch" section in:

If the battery drains too fast after an update, see all the replies to:

Some people have found that by unpairing the watch, erase it, then pair and restore from the backup is the one thing that refreshes the battery.
