Doing this once will fix the indicator if it does ever become inaccurate.
However, as the others above have mentioned this doesn't appear to be a battery issue, it's a firmware issue. I notice the same thing. So the full-empty-full-charge trick won't work here, it's a programming problem. Hopefully a patch fixes it up soon.

Agree. Someone asked why this just started happening, well it has always happened on my 1.5 week old Libre.
The manual states to charge the battery for eight full hours the first three times to condition it, I doubt many of us did that. Butt as Nakor states let it completely discharge then fully recharge it (until charging icon stops its animation) and the battery should hold a charge as advertised.
