kills apple watch battery – Map My Run by Under Armour Review

I really like the look of this app and it does seem to be accurate, at least for me. I’m not using more advanced features, honestly it’s primarily just to track distance/splits/pace for all my runs in one place. And it does that well. The problem is that it totally destroys my Apple Watch SE 2020 battery. Once I launch a run from my watch, then complete it (and these are 2-4 mile runs), it will deplete my battery to next to nothing. It used to last at least 24 hrs. One 30 minute run, and it is dead. In comparison, if I track a run just in the Apple Fitness app, my watch depletes by about 8% in that time, which makes sense given the heart rate monitoring. But dropping by over 80% in 30 minutes with MapMyRun makes me hesitant to use it. Wish there was a workaround for this! Or better, a fix.
