WatchOS 2.0 GM

[lionsy]

Anybody had any battery drain on the Apple Watch, mine went from 100% on 7 am to 40% at 11 am running OS 2 GM (official Dev account).

Yup, severe battery drain on the GM for me too, not that it should matter for the GM, but it's tied to a dev account too.

Nope exactly the same as normal, the only difference is that I installed the GM

Well, crap. Wish I had read these posts before installing the GM

Ha, me too!

"May" just have been indexing, I went to bed straight after installing the GM, though others are having battery drain too so that's not encouraging. Charging up and I'll report back later

 

[Zcott]

Yep, same here. Battery plummeting.

Edit: anyone tried a reset and set up as new?

Its possible to get nice battery life. I have only charged up for 30 minutes in the last 30 hours and have 91% battery at the moment so its possible. Last time I had an issue after an update I unpaired and paired the watch again. I did it early in the day in case I lost any activity data but all went well.

My hey Siri wasn't working and I had to unpair and restore from backup get it back

JustI just unpaired my watch en paired it again, lets see whats going to happen.

Hmmm. AirPlay icon in control centre glance is gray and never works.

What am I missing?

I put mine on an hour ago and it's at 88%. That doesn't seem right to me.

Installed fine (I was scared a bit, as Apple Watch is not yet available in my country, so if anything went wrong, I would have to take a long trip to the nearest Apple Store in Berlin, over 500 km or so). It seems much smoother than 1.0.1. Notifications appear correctly. Too early to say anything about the battery life.

My AirPlay icon is grayed out too, but I have no AirPlay receiver around, so it seems appropriate

I updated last night and then put it on charge when i went to bed. took it off charge at 8am and noticed it had dropped to 49% by about midday. Thought I'd not seated it on the charger correctly overnight. I charged it back up to 100% about 45 mins ago and already down to 95%

There's definitely some power issues. I just lost two percent over 9 minutes.

Any of my apps are working.... i Click on it, and then I wait forever

I went to work at 7am this morning, now after a full days work I'm down to 89%. Normal use really, notifications, mails and texts mostly. works perfectly fine for me, and I'm really enjoying this GM

Upgraded last night I assume? I noticed that some things like app layout aren't current on my iPhone but are on my Watch. I think that there's some caching/data transfer going on and that's whats bringing down the power.

Took my watch off the charger at 100% 30 minutes ago, already down to 92%.

Going to restore it and hope that fixes the problem

I've just un-paired and re-paired, and now charging to 100% to see what happens

Yep, did it two hours before bedtime last night.
No problems this far, and it does feel a lot more finished than beta 5

I might do the same thing. I've noticed that things just aren't working right like installing apps.

Anybody knows where's the Voice Memo app? I recall seeing it demonstrated during a previous keynote.

Thanks. What would these be? Looks rose gold and yellow gold to me but I don't see them listed. Perhaps one of them is Light Orange?

I think that was just a demo to show that developers can access the microphone with Watch OS 2

Oh ok.. Do you know any third party app already compatible with WatchOS 2?

Not sure if anyone is having the same issue, but I tried to change the degrees to Celsius on my watch by going into the the weather app on the iPhone and changing it, but it's not updating on my watch, any ideas?
