You guys are life savers. I got a second hand Apple Watch Series 5 off Facebook for £30 (the screen was cracked and fallen off but I paid an extra £30 to get the screen stuck down) and the battery life is not the best. This video helped a lot. One thing though, don’t turn off the optimized charge limit because it can damage the battery if it changes up to 100% and stays on charge at 100% for too long.
Hmm, maybe I missed it. But what settings need to be on that you recommend off why you want to turn off optimized settings? I feel like this is a good setting to leave on for battery longevity
I stopped the raise to wake and doubled my battery life from that alone. What's also good is as soon as you turn the watch away the display turns off immediately too.
God bless you both. My Apple Watch just had an update and I have never been so angry with a purchase. It completely changed how I use it. I could not get the update off and fix my battery. Thank you for taking the stress away!
OK, losing my mind here. I am fortunate that I kept this video so that when I actually purchased an Apple Watch , your posting guided me. For a time I had a "spartan view" as you describe it (as shown at 4:32). Just that simple digital clock when I wanted to see the time and NOT burn battery! Somewhere along the line I was experimenting with Settings (yeah, dumb I know) and lost this feature. It's something to do with "Always On Display" but none of the three changes in Settings seem to work for me. Can you please give me the necessary steps to recreate that look at 4:32? Thanks again for this terrific video.
this is missing 1 great way to save battery. Schedule "sleep" focus mode at night. When the sleep focus mode is on, the "always on display" will turn off on the Apple watch (I wear my watch to track sleep). You can also make "low power" mode automatically turn on in sleep focus mode. Personally I don't turn on this low power mode in sleep mode because I want the heart rate censor still work. Also it's not a bad advice to turn all background refresh off if your watch connects to your phone all the time. All notifications are mirrored from the iPhone. So you can still receive & reply all message notifications just fine.
I got my Ultra 2 about 4 days ago; I have only placed it on charge when I shower, and so far, it is currently on 80% battery life, which is incredible and works for me. That includes using it for workouts and monitoring all health and sleep activities. I have not used it for music or anything else so far.
Thanks for doing a thorough job. This is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen. Please keep up the great work. Totally enjoy the video. You guys have a great day. Thanks for being awesome.
wait but what are the two settings you have to have on for optimised battery charging to work? did i miss something? I think this was also skipped over in another video?
Great info, thanks. For some strange reason when I turn WiFi off on my AW 9 it turns back on in several hours. How can I keep it off to conserve battery?
Hey PayetteForward, I have a question regarding background app refresh, is it safe to turn off heart rate, blood oxygen and mindfulness? will it affect my apple series 9 ability to record heart data?
Forgivbe me if you guys have already said this in your videos or not but I've gotta get this out there. Y'all should let people know to NOT download any beta OS systems to their apple watches. I just bought a series 8 and downloaded the apple watch OS 10 to my watch and it completely KILLED my watch's battery life. I went from being able to use it all day to the battery draining about 40% in just a couple hours and I wasn't even using the thing... The beta's for watches is TERRIBAD. It has been a huge headache for me. I wish I would have known better myself.
Hi. How do I get the pdf’s of your videos. I pressed the green bar and nothing happened. I don’t see a green button. I’m subscribed does that mean I’m joined? Please help. Thanks
there are two settings for getting this content regularly. "subscribe" means you like the stuff you see and there is no obligation. the channel appears on your subscription list, making it easier to find again. "joining" requires you to pay money for content. Generally this is content that is extra to the list of videos provided by the channel.
Is it ok to let the battery get to the red? Mine is newer SE2 just got but I wear all day and night then charge to 100% in the am before I leave. It got to red a few times with running killing the battery. Should I avoid doing sleep tracking when low to charge overnight instead so no red at 10-15% battery life in the am?
Following some of the tips, the always on display setting with small digital clock “spartan view” mentioned in the video, that only seems to display when accessing apps, this would be a very useful feature when wrist down for quick view and no blurred background, with solid black screen instead, if that makes sense to anyone in this thread? Found an older video using 3rd party app. Does anyone know if there is a way to make this config work through the default/latest 10.1 watchOS settings? Thanks!
Does anyone know why my Apple Watch Ultra overnight off of the charger and off my wrist loses like 8% battery? Anyway to fix that? I have already done everything is this video.
A bunch of settings for saving 10% of battery life, Am thinking about why Huawei has long-lasting batteries and apple watches have not Can you guys explain!!!
Hey guys I have a question please? How can I get podcast and Spotify not to run on my watch when I’m listening to them on my phone? That really drains my watch battery.
Because it makes absolutely no difference at all. You need this feature only you’re someone who leaves your watch on the charger overnight. With the very short charge times, I typically take my phone off the charger as soon as it hits 100% (I also get notification on my phone once it’s fully charged). So I don’t know what the optimised charging really does.
I would personally leave it on. My Apple Watch ultra is at 100% health still and I purchased it at the end of October last year. Wear it every single day and leave it to charge overnight. I’ve also had it on since I got watch and still able to get almost 3 days battery life out of a charge. It’s a setting that will stay on for me.
@@G.Freeman92you can track your quality and length of sleep. Maybe you’re on some medication and want to see if it helps your sleeping or no. You want to see if you slept deep enough or was it just mainly light sleep. Deep sleep is amazing for the body and mind to recover. Yes the watch won’t help you sleep more, but it can show you when you did sleep well so you can replicate whatever you did to be able to sleep well.
Leave optimized charging on. When the watch is not charging it is doing nothing. When this feature turns on and you switch to charge to full it will turn itself off. This feature keeps your watch from staying on 100 percent all night when you charge which is not good for a battery
Doesn't seem to work for me. I don't see the settings icon on my wife's apple watch SE 2nd gen. Perhaps because its non-cellular version and is linked to her iPhone.
I just got the Apple Watch series 8. I have it set in app view, list view, which I love, but when I rotate the crown to get what I need it doesn’t have the spin wheel effect like I have seen in your video and others. I love that effect. Is there a setting I am missing. I have checked everything. It’s driving me insane. Please help!!!!!!
That is a setting that is currently only available on the Apple Watch ultra. However with the greatly extended battery life of the Apple Watch ultra, I wonder if the advices of this video make sense on the ultra.
Optimised battery is the reason why Teslas should only be charged to 65% if it fits within your daily usage. Windows laptops charge to 50 or 80% depending on your choice
It probably does but you it’s not very good at figuring out when it should kick in. What is bad for battery life in my experience is fast charging. Using fast charging seems to screw up the battery health really bad. I switched to slow charging and degrading seems to have slowed down
@@fuuz642 I gave fast charging too many chances & now my battery health is 88% on a 15 month old iPhone 14. The wireless charging dock I bought is now only a stand
Just press the power button for 5 seconds and turn off your apple watch,,you will save battery for your whole life lol😂😂,,,you guys defeated the whole purpose of the apple watch in seconds.
I got optimization off and it still acts like it's on still got to hit the little batt icon and push set to charge to full every time need help apple watch ultra!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i don't do any of these things and my watch gets 24 hours of battery no problem. charge once a day while i'm showering for about 45 minutes and that's all it needs. not sure it's worth losing any features unless u need it to last longer than 24 hours for some reason
What’s the point of apple making the ultra watch which gives you upto 70 hours of battery life out of the box when you worry about all these small things and turn off all the great features? When you spent 800 bucks on a watch, I say just live your life and stop worrying about battery.
Well, for one thing, YOUR idea of a ‘Great Feature!’ may NOT be MY idea of a ‘Great Feature!’ The point is CUSTOMISATION’ , but that’s just MY idea and may not be yours. 😎
I've joined Discord and connected my youtube account. Still no clue on how to get the Perks. Ready to cancel. Unfortunately, I don't have hours to spend on this.
I am an Apple user since the very first iPhone came out, although ------ why still to this day one has to deal with such battery hustle with such expensive watch as the Ultra ?? Apple..........My Garmin watch last two weeks with all the bells on and 3 months in battery save mode and both watches are about the same size .
None of these tips work if it’s the BUG IN 10.1 which Has rendered by watch useless. Charges only to 75% overnight, charges very hot and battery runs out in a few hours.
It’s called “optimization’ or ‘personalization’. You add things you want/need, remove things you don’t want/need. People DO have different wants/needs, and I certainly don’t want to be locked into whatever the watch maker decided that i should have or not.

If you track your sleep, having it on is redundant considering optimized charging is really useful for those who charge overnight like their iPhone.
Hey, what was the outcome of the whole thing? How much longer do your battery last now? Thanks for the video 😊
10 minutes of extra battery life.
@@kdm7820you did something wrong then. I constantly get 14-17 minutes more all day long

I use to get 5 days on a battery. Charge and one day it went to just 1 day and has stayed there. Hopefully this will get me some time back
If you’re using grid view instead of list view. Reduce motion is very noticeable.
It looks so ugly so i turned it back on😂
For part 16, i usually hold the power and crown button to force restart it every once in a while, it helps

Wow just stumbled on this I get so jaded with RUclips review channels but this one looks like some really solid and useful content
Thank you Payette Forward guys 🙏🏿🙏🏿
My battery never went below %100 during this tutorial...I think these tips work, thank you.
Thank you, this was so helpful! I want to get the Apple Watch SE, and my main concern is the battery life. This should help make it last longer!

Nice video guys very informative
I followed the advice from other RUclipsrs and your previous video on this subject and now my battery lasts almost two days.
Battery life on 9.5 beta 2 is really good though
Mine lasts 3 days and I followed nothing

How long does the battery last after doing all of this?
nice clear and structured video thx guys

Great advice, gentlemen, thankyou 👍👍👍👍

No darned watch is going to tell me to calm down!!

Thanks so much guys, much appreciated
-Turned off Complications on all my watch faces and got more hours instantly.

My battery never drains bought December 22 worn it twice
Thank you guys. You all are the best. Seriously. 😎👑🌎♥️
Thanks for the video! Do you find some complications would drain the battery faster?
I turned my heart rate monitor off too. I never use it but I wish there was just a way to turn it off in the background
Thank you Payette Forward! Your settings and battery guides are the best!
18 tip - buy Garmin)
Thank you, very good advice!
For some reason, this videos - and only this video - defaults to play in Spanish dubbed audio. Did something get toggled when you uploaded it?
wait but what are the two settings you have to have on for optimised battery charging to work? did i miss something? I think this was also skipped over in another video?
Thanks but I wonder how Garmin manages to stay on for 28 days (no gps setting)
Best way to save battery on those is ... switch them off and buy Garmin or Suunto. Thats all about it.
Very useful video.
Great info, thanks. For some strange reason when I turn WiFi off on my AW 9 it turns back on in several hours. How can I keep it off to conserve battery?
Amazing tips thank you for sharing have a great day ❤
You mistakenly didn’t mentioned the most important part: closing the location services this will save80% from battery drain 😮
Source of information?
Music cannot be played from the watch anymore. WHY?
Thanks!
I once fell asleep leaving my Apple Watch on charger over night. That drain my battery life.
No. Why would it? It was on a charger.
Are you going to make a updated version??
Alright, I just did everything they mentioned in the video. In context, my watch would go down 9 percent an hour on low power mode.
My Series 8 battery life is terrible. Whether it’s on low power mode or not. I even factory reset it and it’s still awful.
thank u amazing video
Hey PayetteForward, I have a question regarding background app refresh, is it safe to turn off heart rate, blood oxygen and mindfulness? will it affect my apple series 9 ability to record heart data?
Forget about the reduced motion increased battery life (maybe?), its so much faster navigating now on the Ultra
