Battery not charging to 100%

[teerexx52]

So am I the first to have the battery only charge to 99%? Anyone think of any reason it will not charge to 100% after just a few days use? Thanks

That happen to me on my second charge, however on my third (today) it went to 100% but I did complexly discharge the battery until it turned off!

I don't think this is an issue and will resolve within a couple of discharges/charges

Same thing keeps happening to me. I take it off for a moment, and put it back on, then it goes to 100%.

Thanks everyone. Hope this is not going to be an on going issue.

Having the same issue. Haven't had time to calibrate the battery just yet. It bothers me, but hopefully it won't be an ongoing issue.

Now mine won't go over 97%. Jeez, I've never had this problem with an iPhone.

have you restarted the apple watch and or re-paired the device to your iphone? those are two things that usually resolve this issue.

Mine would charge all night and go only to 99%. I would take it out of the charger and wait a few minutes. Put it back on the charger and it would go to 100%

does your battery drain quickly during use?

Depends. I use the Exercise app each day for about 90 minutes for workouts. I found if I turned off the heart beat part of it I used much less battery. I also use bluetooth earbuds and play music from my watch while I exercise. I am ending the day about 40% left. I find myself looking at battery life during the day a lot. Still trying to get a handle on it.

cant say i have the issue where it wont charge to 100%

the only thing i have is where the battery is around 10% before the end of day but i think it has to do with using the fitness app 4 times a day. just repaired my device and shut down/reboot to see if that helps any.
