My Instinct Solar battery is trash since the most recent update. What do I do?
Normally says 13days worth of charge after an overnight full 100% charge. That now lasts 2-3 days at best since the most recent update.

Mine has also suffered drastically - i would get about two weeks of use, with at least one GPS activity a day. so roughly 14 days of smart watch use and 14 hours of GPS activity tracking.
Now, i'm having to charge after just over a week, with no really change of behaviour - if anything, I've used slightly less GPS this week.
I've not noticed any better HR accuracy or PulseOx efficiency, either.
Very frustrated at this 'update'.
Thanks GG. Good to know I'm not the only one.
After calling Garmin I did a factory reset, turned off ox sensor, which I liked having on and the batter at full charge now says 28days. That said, the only thing I have done that's been active since is a 10mile bike ride and a golf game, neither of which were tracked on the watch. Today I am at 8 days left. It will be dead by the end of today no doubt. Terrible update.
With that. Garmin tech support was helpful and said I would be able to swap it out for another brand new one if the problem persisted, which it is. So there's that. Good luck!!
