Battery life after 21.19 upgrade

Hi my Epix PRO battery life dropped from 16 to 11 days after downloading the 21.19 software upgrade. This is a huge reduction of autonomy. Can someone help restoring the previous autonomy ? In another forum I was suggested to reset the watch and switch it OFF and back ON again for a couple of times…no improvements

  • are you using the power option in the control menu - or are you holding down the light button when you switch off - as a major difference.

    When your watch is fully charged what is the estimated battery lfie per the watch - if that has gone from 16 to 11 days then it means there are some settings you have adjusted. Check pulse ox, display brightness, display timeout, AOD on off etc.

  • Thanks, will try to go through your suggestions.

  • I've noticed exactly the same - battery life has gone from ~2 weeks to 10 days (actual, and the watch estimate agrees).

    I can't find anything that obviously changed, did you?

  • I have followed what jaamgans recommended and it worked, I'm now back at 16dd autonomy:
