Always On is an Apple Watch feature that ensures your watch is always on, even if your wrist is down. This allows you to always see the time without needing to raise your wrist. You will also see your watch face or most recently used app.
If Always On is not active, your watch’s display will be off by default. It will turn on when you raise your watch towards your face.
That’s a pretty brief explanation of what Always On means on an Apple Watch. To learn the answers to some of the most common questions we see about the Always On display feature, continue reading.
How Long Does the Apple Watch Battery Last With Always On Display?
Typically, an Apple Watch’s battery life, even with Always On turned on, is usually up to 18 hours. This depends, obviously, on how often you use your watch and what you do with it. If you exercise or play music or games, it will not last as long. One way to extend your Apple Watch’s battery life, even if you are a heavy user, is to turn off the Always On display. This can help preserve the battery life and give you a few extra hours.
Why Is My Always On Display Not Working on Apple Watch?
There are two main reasons Always On display is not working. The first is that you have Low Power Mode turned on, which prevents Always On display from working to help preserve the battery.
The second reason is that your watch is in Theater Mode (designed for when you’re in the cinema watching a movie), which also prevents Always On display, because it doesn’t make sense to have the watch on when you’re in a dark cinema.
You can turn these settings off in your Control Center.
Is Always On Display Bad for Battery Life?
I wouldn’t say it’s terribly bad for battery life, because Apple has introduced measures to minimize the battery impact of Always On display. For example, while the display will be on when your wrist is down, the screen will be dimmed. The best battery saving tips I can give you are to reduce heavy usage, such as using apps, music, or workout tracking extensively, and to keep your watch up to date. Turning off the Always On display will improve battery life, but if your watch’s battery dies quickly, there may be other causes.
Does the Apple Watch Series 3 Have Always On Display?
Unfortunately, no. The Apple Watch Series 3 does not have the Always on display feature. When comparing different Apple Watch models, make sure to take this into account. A Series 5 watch or later will have the Always on display option.
Should You Turn Off Always On Display on Apple Watch?
That really depends on you, as it is more of a personal preference kind of thing. You can turn off Always On Display if you don’t find it useful or if you want to conserve battery life on your Apple Watch. You can also turn it off if you’re in a dark room and the light from the display is bothering your eyes.
Why Is My Apple Watch Battery Draining So Fast?
There are a few things that can cause Apple Watch battery issues. You can often fix your Apple Watch’s battery drain by making sure the watchOS version is up-to-date, updating all apps, and limiting app usage. Some apps and watch faces may also drain your watch’s battery, so you can stop using them to extend your Apple Watch’s battery life. A high screen brightness can also cause battery drain.
Conclusion
Always On can enhance your experience by making it easier to see the time and other details. For example, some people find that raising their wrist doesn’t always cause their watches to respond correctly. However, due to the watch always being on, it will drain the battery quicker.
