Significant improvements to Apple smartwatch battery life and new options revealed 1

With a new power-saving mode in the next watchOS 9 update, Apple is prepared to increase the watch's battery life. The Control Center or settings menu may be used to enable the mode, according to GSMArena, manually. The source claims that the freshly implemented feature would alert customers when just 10% of battery life is left and quickly shut off after charging to 80%.

How does the battery-saving mode benefit users?

  • The battery-saving mode disables most power-hungry functions. Including the heart rate notifications, always-on display, notifications, arrhythmia tracking,  and blood oxygen measurements.
  • After turning on energy-saving mode, the exercise reminders feature will not function.
  • The mode will turn off Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity if there isn't an iPhone nearby that is synced to the watch.

Do the habits of the user determine the watch's battery life?

Earlier this month, the tech company introduced better battery charging capabilities to its Apple Watch running watchOS 9 to reduce battery ageing. The charging habits of users will be used to train this function.

It calculates the best time to charge the battery based on usage patterns, just like the iPhone version of the service.

What else to expect from the smartwatch?

  • Additionally, Apple Watch now has support for Audible.
  • Thanks to the Audible connection, customers won't need to take out their iPhones to listen to a podcast or an ebook.
  • Whether customers are out on the run, at the gym, walking the dog, or just venturing outside without their iPhones. They can utilise their Apple Watch to access Audible content from any place.
  • Users may stream any Audible title from the platform while downloading it in the background for offline listening. Only by tapping any title on the Apple Watch interface.
