Is your Apple Watch not charging after the watchOS 11 update? Several solutions can help resolve this issue.
Software Update
A known bug in watchOS 11 caused battery drain. Update your Apple Watch to the latest watchOS version (11.0.1 or later) to fix this. You can update directly on your watch or through the Watch app on your iPhone. Here's a guide on updating software.
Check Accessories and Charger
Ensure you're using official Apple charging accessories. Third-party chargers can sometimes create problems. Clean the charging puck and the back of your Apple Watch with a lint-free cloth and rubbing alcohol. Make sure your watch sits correctly on the charger and try different USB-C ports if necessary.
Force Restart
Force restarting your Apple Watch can clear potential software glitches affecting charging. Press and hold both the Digital Crown and Side Button until the Apple logo appears. This will not harm your device.
Disable Optimized Battery Charging
Temporarily disabling the Optimized Battery Charging feature might improve charging speed. On your Apple Watch, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health, then toggle off Optimized Charge Limit. Explore Apple Watch deals.
