Thank you. My watch is 3 months old and I was about to take it back to samsung and say it's broken. Luckily I youtube'd first! This past month my battery barely lasted 2 hours. I used all your tricks and my battery is lasting 2 full days! Insane!!! Thank you soooooo much. You saved my watch!
I've been testing these settings out on my Classic 46mm. Some of these I had set but after setting it up with these changes got me from barely a day to just over two days which is awesome! Thanks again for these tips.
May I add, if some of yall forgot your charger, Samsung phones have a great feature to share power between wireless charging devices. That includes your watch. Will work only with Samsung phones that can be wirelessly charged of course.
I've enjoyed all of your videos on the gw4. One thing I have done to preserve battery life on my watch is to limit notifications to only the most essential eg. SMS, WhatsApp and calender. Anything else such as emails, Instagram and Twitter I can just check on my phone. This saves the watch receiving a constant stream of unnecessary data draining the battery.
@@krisvaras7801 go into the wear os app, go to watch settings, notifications, and toggle on or off the apps that you want the notifications to come through to the watch
@@marknoble7537 How much battery life were you able to get with only the basic notifications? I'm thinking of getting this watch and only need basic notifications as well.
@@sampsalol at the moment I get 2-3 days. I don't wear it overnight - I put it in sleep mode. During the day I keep it in power saving mode and use it to check the time (obviously), make payments with Google wallet, see who's calling me, reply to a few texts, check the weather once in a while and use the Google assistant to set timers or get information from the internet quickly. I find that for anything else like emails, browsing the web, listening to music it's easier to use my phone.
@@marknoble7537 Your usage sounds just like mine. My issue is that I currently have a Huawei Watch GT and while it doesn't do payments or Google assistant, the battery does last easily 10 days..
I hate mine and on battery saver mode it is far worse than active 2 and even Gal watch.. It literally in one day drained full battery.(again battery saver mode".
@@Nicole-ho8he mine is in for repair as the battery was lasting less than 1 day..recently 12 hours and I charged to 100% and would not turn on, Samsung got my watch this morning.. Basically from new it was the worse Samsung watch battery combination. Both my Galaxy Watch and Active 2 last longer and Active far longer.
Nice video! I subbed! So by using Bluetooth you can still answer calls and talk through your watch? Is it possible to rec voice messages to Whatsapp through the watch?
Watch only mode we got crazy 14 days battery life, seriously? I might as well buy a normal watch and ill get more than 1 year of battery life. Appreciate you advice, but i didnt buy smartwatch for that feature.
My battery lasts 2 days with a bright watch face, i dont like dark mode. I also dont use gestures as i dont get calls often. Heart rate is at measure every 10 mins also.
Awesome video! The last few days my battery life has gone down the tubes, so I found your video and followed it point by point. Will wait to see if this solves my problem or if I need to reset or look for another solution. Thanks
Bro most tips and tricks videos are just things I figured out within a few days of owning the watch. Your tips are because you UNDERSTAND how the watch and radios within the watch work. Damn.. Thank you!
Yo I have the 42mm version. Does it have a adjustment period time on first uses for the battery life? Mine is draining fully on half a day (one afternoon) drains about 10% in 1 hour without even being used. I got all health sensors turned off, manual mode only, got a very simple watch face with only time and date and all black. I dunno what's going on, I got only a few days left to be able to return it. Do I have a faulty unit?
@CKid TV I don't want google assistant. I prefer bixby. Idid figure out how to turn off the voice-wakeup for bixby though, so it's not using as much battery to listen in the background. Thank you
I just got mine a couple of days ago and I was concerned about how fast the battery was draining. I knew part of it was the animated watch face, but I had most of what you did to turn off turned on. Hopefully now I'll make through a 12 hour shift without having to switch to power saving mode. Thank you.
Checking these videos, applying battery saver mode, and having too much fun playing the watch 4 'tomagotchi' game (pet quest), saved A LOT of battery power.
How to use whatsapp in galaxy watch classic 4? When i play my TH-cam on my Samsung handy, I get a notification on my watch 🎵( this icon) , do you know how can I get rid of it? Because I feel this is draining my handy battery 🔋.
THANK YOU‼️ I love this smart watch, I was going NUTS with the battery life. I came off of a Fitbit Tracker that lasted a week before a charge. Everything you laid out has worked. I was ready to sell it, with all the extra bands and case covers I bought, I was so disappointed in the battery life. Thanks again‼️ From a Senior that likes gadgets, and likes to keep up.
I didn't think about turning off the auto brightness setting and I that made me think about turning off the show battery charge level, too. Thanks for the tips. :)
Hey 👋🏻 🙂 I have the Apple Watch 6, 40mm, small wrists! Would the galaxy watch be too big I’m wondering as I’m changing to Google Pixel 6 Pro soon? Thanks from the UK 🇬🇧 👍🏻🇬🇧
I have the 44mm and not overly large wrists for a guy. This watched isn't too big and bulky like a lot of smart watches. I think it's a decent size. But they also have a 40mm.
Hi, would you please indicate how to turn off the LTE. I am an older user and learning how to use this watch is a bit much. Thank you so much for your help.
Ok what app monitors the heart rate cuz i had it to measure continuously and the drain wasn't bad at all it had 0.4% on health service and 0.8% on samsung health (I'm assuming it's one of those) in 9h
I've found that the Google Fit watch face has the best battery life I have a REALLY old Asus Zenwatch 2, and i can still get 2 days out of the battery if i disable the always on display, and have 'twist wrist to wake' turned off I dont even need to use power saving mode or turn off bluetooth/wifi Now, i am still waiting for a solar assisted smart watch, even though i have this Asus Zenwatch 2. I am still rocking my 12 year old Cassio GW9200-1 I have never needed to change the battery, because the battery is always at 100% Now, if watches started adding batteries into the watch bands it might make it better with 2 week+ battery life with heavy use, but i like never having to charge anything
Another guy said go to developer settings, and change animation to off. Tha makes it scroll super fast between apps. (Animation at 10 will be slow, laggy transitions).
I prefer to have all the fancy options on but avoid the completely stupid notion of not putting the watch on the charger every night while I am fucking dead for 8 hours.
What worked for me is keeping the bluetooth off. I switch it on once a day so the data can be synced. My battery lasts for 3 days with just this simple hack. And I only charge the battery to 80% Also, Google just bought a company which will help it improve the Wear OS so that the power consumption problem can be resolved. So future updates to Wear OS will be a game changer.
How can I mute notications from reading full text on my watch screen but still get a vibration alert on my watch? Please help me!!! Its making me go crazy! Everytime i get a whatsapp text the message comes straight to my screen on my watch. I mean its kinda private right? You dont want people near you to read the text unless you open it your self.
I've watched several videos about battery life and was very frustrated because I felt like nothing was helping. Then you suggested turning off LTE 🤯. Can't believe I didn't think of that. I only got LTE because the watch was free from my provider. You aren't he only one to suggest it and it's only needed when your phone is at home. Thanks bruh.
GREAT VIDEO! I learned way more than I can remember and I loved the intro! I use these tips for my smartphone and have extended the battery life there as well!
I just received my galaxy watch 4 yesterday haven't set it up yet but you do have great videos about the watch which I will use your tips and tricks for it.
Nice video! I've got the ideia! You don't need to turn off all that makes this watch, a smart watch but, only use when you need it, and don't need to have all the health infos beeing updated in watch face and sincronized with smarthphone all the time, this features increases the battery drain. Tnx for the tips! I'll test in my GW4 Classic.
Just got my watch as part of a phone package. Done everything bar turn it into a standard watch got up to 15 hours of battery life 4 days as a standard watch
Today I've set Pixel watch face, and it literally saves my battery. Even after 10 hr & 30 minutes still 72% battery is remaining. Usage: HR: 10-12 times (manually) SpO2: 5-6 times (manually) Walking sport mode with GPS ON: 4 times for around 3km
These are all really great tips! I am going to try a bunch of these because the battery on my GW4 WiFi only model is terrible, only getting one day at best.
Step 1: disable everything that makes a smartwatch smart.
Totally defeats the entire purpose of having this Smartwatch. Why have these features if we can't use them smh.
Well, those approx. first 1 minute and 20 sec of the video is time of my life I'm never getting back.
It was the 6th step actually
But sometimes I just want a watch LMAO

My battery lasts 2 days with a bright watch face, i dont like dark mode. I also dont use gestures as i dont get calls often. Heart rate is at measure every 10 mins also.
The rap was fun for a change haha thanks man
Dude your awesome, thanks for the tips!
do you can disable bezel for use like a dive chrono or quick time elapse? i mean = rotating the bezel without enter the menu.
I get 4 to 5 days on my watch 4 and i’m pretty happy with it
How do you change the time format on the watch only mode? Mine is on that military time.
Are we able to connect, apple airpods pro 2 to this watch and my mobile is samsung galaxy m52
U should do a track broh. U ve got talent i love the flow.
Haha. Go to CKidMusic.com and feel free to support the music.

If you have Spotify app on your phone does the app pop up on the watch?
Hi sir is it normal if the watch gets to hot when its charging hope I could have answers ASAP thank you 😊
Whenever you are charging most tech products whether phone or smartwatches its normal that they will get hot, but it won't hurt it.
Just got my Galaxy Watch 5 yesterday and this video was great. Thanks. I love your personality and the rap!
Also turn off "Always on" feature will save battery life
My bixby app just automatically listens when I enter the app. I don't see the option to turn it off
I’m your settings you can turn this off and switch it to Google Assistant

By turning off the LTE and WiFi,
(1) can the watch still track your sleep; and
(2) will Samsung Health get affected when I workout on the treadmill?
Ist greyscale reallz saving battery?
i mean white/grey is a combination of r g and b
After turning off everything, it's as good as using a basic fitness tracker.
can you create a quick-toggle for "watch only" mode?
Intro is fiyah let's go!!

Does power saving mode turn anything off?
insta sub, that intro was fire
Appreciate you CKidMusic.com
Great vid. Loving the energy. Quick one though, can the GW4 be charged via power share on your phone or does it need its own charger?
Yes I've done it just a bit slow
Iam only able to get 14 to 15 is that normal or coz deactivate battery plz answer if you aware of this

Go to Galaxy wearable app, settings, monile plan and turn off

What watch face are you using?
Good steps and tricks

intro was fire👌🏽
Subscribed right after that intro 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate you Queen! Much respect!
Thanks. I think the one that was gradually making my battery life shorter was all the apps open in the background. All great info
I thought LTE is an auto mode?? It only goes into LTE mode when it loses Bluetooth connection?
If you want longer battery life with enough features for workout choose huawei GT3. I just got mine over this watch 4
Very informative video thanks sir..
Thanks for the instructions. But why do I buy a smartwatch when I have to turn every smart stuff off?
Just got my watch as part of a phone package. Done everything bar turn it into a standard watch got up to 15 hours of battery life 4 days as a standard watch
Thanks for the video! Just picked up a Galaxy watch 4 and I can tell this is going to help my battery life. Thanks, Man!
Today I've set Pixel watch face, and it literally saves my battery. Even after 10 hr & 30 minutes still 72% battery is remaining.
Usage:
HR: 10-12 times (manually)
SpO2: 5-6 times (manually)
Walking sport mode with GPS ON: 4 times for around 3km
Secret Agent is a major major go. White Shoes approved.
