The 4.40 update specifically has not been attributed to causing rapid battery drain at this time, so hopefully any users experiencing the concern have reached out to us directly to discuss the concern.

Please try install third party watch faces and see the drain. NOw before you go about telling us that Garmin does not support or vet third-party watch faces, consider this: I downloaded it from them from garmin connect and these watch faces had no issues before the update.
