Battery Optimization Guide

This guide helps you maximize battery life and performance.

1. Reboot Regularly

• Turn off the device: Press and hold the power button until the device shuts down completely.
• Turn on the device: Press and hold the power button again to restart. This simple reboot can help resolve minor performance issues and ensure efficient battery use.

2. Check for Updates

• Firmware and software updates: Check for updates regularly on your device or the companion app. Updates often contain battery optimizations and bug fixes that enhance device efficiency.

3. Adjust Display and Notifications

• Screen brightness: Lowering the screen brightness can significantly extend battery life.
• Screen timeout: Set the screen timeout to a shorter duration so the display turns off quickly when not in use.
• Notifications: Disable non-essential notifications. Excessive alerts can drain the battery as they keep the screen active and may engage vibration functions.

4. Limit High Power Features

• GPS Tracking: Only enable GPS during activities that require location tracking, as continuous GPS use can quickly drain the battery.
• Heart Rate and SpO2 Monitoring: Adjust the frequency of health monitoring features to match your needs. Continuous monitoring consumes more battery; consider turning it on only during workouts or specific activities.

5. Optimize Connectivity Settings

• Bluetooth: Turn off Bluetooth when you do not need to sync data immediately with your smartphone. Reconnect only when you want to update your fitness data.
• Wi-Fi (if applicable): Some devices support Wi-Fi; disabling it when not needed can save power.

6. Calibrate Sensors After Reboot

• Recalibrating the device’s sensors ensures accurate tracking, but also reduces unnecessary power use due to sensor drift or inaccurate readings.

7. Use Power-Saving Mode

• Many health and fitness devices offer a power-saving or battery-saver mode that disables certain non-essential features. Activating this mode can help extend battery life, especially when you’re unable to charge for an extended period.

By following these steps, users can optimize the battery life of their health and fitness devices and ensure they function reliably for longer.
