7 Ways to Improve Apple Watch Battery Life

[@jebaker2]

Great tips... I think it's sad that you'd ever need to worry about battery life on a $500+ watch, though. It should go 2-3 days without compromise.

I am getting up to 3 days from my Series 6 👍

@@codyshane6838 I went back to Garmin, got the vivoactive 4 and a Z flip 3, Apple watch is alright but it doesn't really fit my needs as far as a fitness tracker too.

I have a series 4 and the battery lasted me about 8 hrs. After switch off Siri battery last me 24 hrs. Thx!

[@anthonysmales7702]

Sucks that you literally have to turn off most of the cool features to save battery 🤨 Apple needs to start putting better batteries in their products 🙄

[@cultofmac]

To be fair - the Series 6 gets pretty amazing battery life… so these are just ways to stretch that even further.

[@PVAPlayy]

@@cultofmac 1.5 days is not that great, tbh. I bought a Garmin Fenix 3 for $50 just recently from FB marketplace. This thing lasts at least a week on a single charge.

[@cultofmac]

That’s great and all, but can you make calls, send texts, control music or your Apple TV, or act on notifications with it?

[@PVAPlayy]

@@cultofmac I don’t do any of those things on my current Series 6 Apple Watch

[@anthony7142]

I saw your chair move in the background all by itself and almost pooped my pants. Went back and watched it again and it was just your cat! Phew!

[@sherripatterson7174]

Thanks for the tips. I just applied them on my Series 6 so hopefully this helps. I used to have a Series 2 and could get 2 full days before it needed charging now the Series 6 only got one full day. Thanks

[@miccakoster3838]

I don’t use Siri for anything she sucks as an assistant. I found that turning off background app refresh saves huge battery

[@Solar_pat]

Thnx for the tips and there was a cute cat in the backround

[@jaym2461]

Hey guys i just got my new apple watch series 6 and i charge it overnight, will that affect my battery health in the long run?

[@mollz28]

I was told it will not affect the battery life. It is a smart watch, therefore it cannot overcharge

[@tetchuma]

My 2017 Garmin gives me 9 days before needing to be recharged. And it diagnosed my sleep apnea 5 years ago…

[@hemotsan]

Planning to upgrade to apple watch se. Im using haylou solar and it last for 20days.

[@domino5711]

Really nothing about disabling sensors? Some might not care about heart rate and so on.

[@ditermejia6027]

My last smart watch lasted 1 week without charging. Just got the Apple Watch SE and was surprised it only lasted a day

[@yabzii]

does your battery day overnight? i got my watch yesterday and it was only 96% before i slept and now its 79%

note: thats just overnight since i just woke ip

Very good and helpfull informations!!! 👍😀Thanks!

[@QuickFilmsbyAK]

After how much months iwatch needs to change battery.

[@cultofmac]

You can easily go 2+ years without ever needing to have the battery replaced. It’s also not something you can do yourself, so you’ll want to check with Apple on cost and timing.

[@Levithemechanic]

[@maryl.7226]

Cats truly have a mind of their own…

[@socialillz]

I don’t mind turning off the hey Siri function. I don’t like speaking into my watch. Looks and feels weird

[@mollz28]

I upgraded from a series 5 to an SE, and even when I had the series 5, I pressed Digital digital crown for Siri

God i hate the battery life of the apple watches in general other smart watches have a week battery and all kind of great features like huawei

[@BrunoDECOURCY]

You have watchOS 7.1? Beta already? Good one:)

[@cultofmac]

In the ever evolving quest for more consistent battery life, I tried the 7.1 beta. Now I’m stuck until it’s officially out. 🤷‍♂️

[@crsh2007]

My current Honor Band 6 has a 2 week battery life, and my Huawei Band 4 Pro before that once lasted 30 days before it needed charging 🤨 Why does a watch by APPLE have less than a DAY of battery life???

[@RivandaBakhtiar]

Because it has gps, wifi, more pixel screen, and bigger screen, more sensor, and etc etc

[@jackholcomb290]

Yes! My old watch holds the battery charge for 18+ hours. My new SE holds for 8?? And tech support is someone from India I can’t understand and has no idea how to fix the problem. If I did not have an iPad, phone and watch that are all synched I would drop apple. They are close to a trillion dollar company and have to cuts costs by eliminating components and outsourcing tech support to India or other countries. This absolute bullshit. I have owned apple products for over 15 years and you would think their service would improve as they make billions!!! Go figure.

[@timmy0210]

Apple is the only company that can you make call, text, gps, workout, and way more just on your wrist.
