    Same here. Battery issue persists.

    I am still on 3.4, so I can't speak about any of these issues from experience.  Since my wife's watch updated to 4.4, she is complaining very loudly about how unresponsive gestures is for her.  She went in and checked, and sensitivity is set to High.  She says that it is barely working anymore.  She was also complaining about issues with the heart rate sensor, but I didn't get any details.

    I thought that Fitbit updates were bad when I was on the Ionic, but Fitbit puts Garmin to shame.  It seems like every time Garmin releases an update, they break many more things than they fix.

    My battery is draining much faster now too.  The sleep matrix now says I'm awake most of the night too.

    It's been 30 hours since full charge and my battery is at 77%.

    I don't wear it at night. Typical day starts at 5.30am until 6.30pm with 1.5hrs of weight training/cardio and music while workout. I'm also on the latest SW 4.40

    Did a complete factory reset yesterday. And after completed the setup and reconnect as a new unit to garmin connect i now have had watch on all night and a few hours in the morning only loosing 3% batter went from 82% to 79%.

    So it may have helped out although its sad to have to do a reset.

    48 hours since full charge

    Same daily routine with 1.5 hours of workout with music on and it's at 52%.

    Can easily last 3 days if not more. 

    As someone else pointed do reset.
