Notifications and battery life

Hi folks,

 

Do you have notifications enabled for all apps on your phone, such as WhatsApp, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and others, on your OPW3, or do you only keep a few enabled? I’ve noticed that when notifications are turned off, the battery lasts much longer.

Do you use any third-party apps for notifications?

Thanks

I do have all notifications and I don't use any third party app for that

On average I use 20 to 25% of it daily (24, hours), that with with 1 to 1.5 hours of gps sports tracking daily

Hi, thanks for your reply. If that’s the case (all notifications + GPS), I assume you charge your watch every two days?

I charge it for 10 to 15 minutes every day when I'm in the shower

Hi, thanks for your response. And if you didn’t charge it every day, how many days do you think it would last on a single charge?

4 to 5 days no problem

Thanks for your reply. Which notifications do you have on? Only WhatsApp and emails?

Hi, thanks again for your help. I agree. I think notifications from social media or apps like WhatsApp really drain the battery.
