Damn you went there.
I unloadedall theapps that I know I never use on my watch and on the remaining ones, reviewed background refresh and location. Followed that with a forced restart.. With AOD on Ihave NO complaints.
As soon as I see any "gate" claims I see a person looking for attention without seeking a solution.
Every release of the iphone and watch seem to draw the same threads.
Battery life sucks with the release of the new ios or watch os. .1 gets much better and subsequent releases its a forgotten issue.
