In today’s time, smartwatches have become a center of attraction in the world of fitness and lifestyle, and gadget freaks are snapping them up as soon as they are being launched. These days, you can find numerous types of smartwatches from different brands with different features that you will have to consider various factors before taking your pick. Moreover, the battery life of the smartwatch is one of the most important factors that you would want to consider while buying one.

The relation between smartwatches and battery life is certainly straightforward. The more features your watch has and the more it looks and works like a smartphone, the more energy it uses resulting in battery drainage. Hence, here are some tips that can follow to improve your smartwatch’s battery life.

  • Monitor the battery – You can save the battery power of your smartwatch by monitoring it. Some watches come with tools that inform about the applications that drain the battery most.
    1. How long do smartwatch batteries last?

The battery of most of the smartwatches lasts about 1 to 2 days. However, it depends upon the usage of the gadget.

2. Is it okay to turn off my smartwatch at night?

If you are not using the smartwatch then it is absolutely fine to turn it off at night as it will save battery life. Since these smart wearables always run some processes in the background continuously to operate, which in turn uses battery. Therefore, switching off the watch when not in use is a good decision.

3. Are all smartwatch chargers the same?

No, there are no universal chargers for most smartwatches. The size of the coil inside each charger varies. But anything with Qi charging should be compatible.

  • Block unnecessary notification Managing or blocking unnecessary app notifications may help you boost the battery life of your smartwatch. You can disable notifications from apps that are less important or uninstall such apps from your watch.
  • Disable wrist gestures If you don’t find the need for gestures while you lift your arm, then disabling the wrist gesture feature may be a good option.
  • Adjust the screen brightness level By reducing the brightness level of your watch, you can save its battery power and even protect your eyes. Moreover, this will bring a noticeable change in battery life and ensure optimum performance.
  • Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth syncing Smartwatches stay connected through different ways such as cellular, Bluetooth, and WiFi. Mostly, these rely on the Bluetooth connection, as long as it is in the range of your phone. You can save the battery life of your smartwatch by disabling the connections that you don’t require or are not using.
  • Use the snooze Your smartwatch battery will last longer if you use the snooze option. For each notification received, your watch will automatically buzz. And, by turning off the notifications the screen of your smartwatch won’t light up time and there would be no vibration that will save the battery.
