This has been the most problematic update I've ever had with an apple product. Everything was fine on 13 and watch6, after updating both...wow. My watch stopped syncing, all my workouts disappeared, battery life has taken a hit on both watch and phone. I followed apple's instructions for fixing things, took 4 hours of erasing and resetting and restoring and things are still bad. My watch at least syncs now, but the battery life is horrible. At the end of the day I used to have anywhere from 50% down to maybe 40% left, now, with NO other changes I'm lucky if my watch is at 25%.

My xs max has battery issues now as well, again with NO changes I was ending the day with about 20% left and now I'm lucky if I don't have to plug it in before it reaches zero.

Another phone issue is my calls are MUCH worse now. It seems like my bar indicators are still the same but the actual use is much much worse. Calls dropping, internet cutting out, all in the same areas I've always been using it in.

Don't even get me started with siri. I have a bluetooth com unit on a motorcycle helmet, with ios13 I could say "hey siri" and have her do whatever I wanted. Since the update I can't get siri to do anything, at all.

Please don't tell me to give it a day, or any of the other 'usual' fixes. I'm not new to this and I've tried all the standard fixes. I really regret updating......
