One of the features of the Apple Watch Series 7 is the ability to have faster charging times. Apple says that with fast charging, the battery level of the Apple Watch Series 7 can go from 0 to 80% in about 45 minutes. To do this, you need to plug it into a USB-C charger, which doesn’t exactly come in the Apple Watch box.
With any power adapter that supports 5W or higher USB Power Delivery, you can achieve fast charging capabilities with Apple Watch Series 7. But with watchOS 8.5, something has changed and fast charging on Apple Watch Series 7 no longer works. seems to work. Several users affected by this problem have reported it on the Apple and Reddit support forums since they updated their Apple Watch to watchOS 8.5.
It is clear that it is a bug in the Apple Watch software, so if you also encounter this problem, calm down, do nothing, and wait for Apple to solve it soon with a new update.
