19.05 battery drain

I updated to 19.05 and it killed the battery. I charged to full less than 3 days ago, used it to record two activities, and already down to 7%. Can we bring the Spotify bug back in favor of the battery life?

    Same issue for me. I’m just watching my percent go down with no activities this morning.  Woke up with it at 68%.  Haven’t done anything to drain the batteryin the 2.5 hours since then and already down to 43%.  I had been getting a good 5 days of life prior to this.

    Did you solve this? I have the same problem since 19.05. I tried reset, restart, unpair/pair again, full discharge and charge to 100%, charge to 100% and 1 extra hour, and the problem persists. I don't use pulse oximeter, no "always on display".
    No GPS activities and the battery lasts 2-3 days. It used to last 5-7 days before the firmware update.

    Same issue here. It barely lasts 24hours now, it used to be 4/5 days. I noticed when I disable the heart rate monitor (and all the functionality that comes with it) then the battery life increases significantly.

    Have you checked that it’s not your watch face that is draining the battery?  Mine was configured for Always On mode and I was getting 2 days battery life.  I turned Always On off and now after 1.5 days i’m still on 82%.  I knew Always On would have an impact but thought that watch faces designed to support this were also designed in such a way to minimise the impact to a more acceptable level.

    The other thing to check (via Connect IQ) is that you have the latest versions of any apps, watch faces or data fields.
