Watch OS 4 Beta 2 is now available

I did that a few days ago and yes it was fine for about one day and then bam back to bad battery drain Thanks for the suggestion though

I can say that nothing has fixed the battery drain issue and has basically rendered my watch useless. Looks like it’s going into a drawer till the next update, grrrrr

Definitely try resetting the Watch. If I can take my 1st-generation Watch off the charger at 6:20 A.M. and use it for 15 to 16 hours prior to putting it back on the charger, even though it still has several hours worth of battery life remaining, so should you.

Is it possible you have a rogue app that may need updating to work properly with watchOS 4?

I’m restoring now and going to set up as new watch to see how it runs without any 3rd party apps running.

I blame sleep tracking apps. It only happened to me after I installed Pillow.

I am trying to update to the new public beta 4. I get as far as install and to the next screen but it won’t continue to update screen. Any ideas/help?

So after resetting / starting from scratch it has now gone back to draining in about 8 hours. Looks like Dev Beta 2 has ruined my watch until beta 3 comes out. I have no 3rd party apps installed and turn off all recommendations but still bad

Has anyone used the Mail app on WatchOS4? Does it still not show any email that contain html and make you have to check your phone?

Where is beta 3? I’m still on 1 because all the battery issues from 2.
