100% before beta 2, then down to 92%, now back to 100%
Yay.
Yay.
Terrible battery life! It lost even more than 11.2 beta 2/3, right ? Did you have your black Apple Watch Ultra 2 since release day or did you recently bought it?
Same, I’ll check it out after I finish fitness+ workout this evening. I expect my Apple Watch Series 6 to be back on 100% battery health! Y’all with Apple Watch you owned under 2 years and newer should see it back to normal!
I wonder if this fixes the full charge notification that stopped working for a lot of folks.
Done. Went from 83% health to 91% health. As I mentioned, I have no idea what the health was before the bug. I'll assume 91% is reasonable for a two-year old watch.
Understandable, my Apple Watch i only owned it for like 6 months so it should stay 100% battery health like it actually is until next may or June.
I also am downloading the new beta 3 of watchOS 11.2 developer beta and once I finish fitness + workout will get it to install and check if it went back to 100% like normal.
I know it’s in this thread, but did you say the magic number for Apple to trigger battery service is >80%?
Must be 80% or under that number. AppleCare coverage will also cover battery replacement.
Alright then that is two months, considered new. 🆕 some here said that after installing the latest one it stabilized it.
Yes I was at 100% health before installing beta 2. Then after I was down to 93% then a full charge after it was 92%. After installing today’s beta 3 I’m back to 100% health.
Now hopefully the battery usage is sorted as I estimate it has been about 15-20% worse on beta 2
Same here, finally this was the fix we hoped for. My Apple Watch Series 6 that I owned less than 6 months now shows its actual battery health at 100% like the first day I bought it. The update is still setting in, 😅 a long nearly 2 hour Apple fitness + workout 🏋️ brought it down to 45% a bit faster than usual since I had it updating all afternoon, charged it full again after the workout.
Anyone else still having issues with the "Last charged to" in Battery being incorrect?
I just charged my battery to 100% and took it off the charger, and Battery shows "Last charged to 100% on Tuesday 21:45" (It's Thursday 11:45 now). Reboot doesn't fix the issue.
EDIT: Ignore me, it's just updated in front of my eyes to be correct.

My AWU2 was @ 98% then down to 88% after installing latest beta it's gone up to 96% so somehow I've lost 2% in 2 weeks?
I don’t think you should’ve lost 2% on an Apple Watch ultra 2 by now under any circumstances. It should still be 100% in my opinion. My U1 is still at 99%.
