The Apple Watch, or iWatch, as it’s also known, is the smartwatch that everyone wants. It has revolutionized how we use wristwatches by allowing us to do things we never imagined a wristwatch could be used for. But that doesn’t mean the iOS Watch is perfect. Our iWatch is used 24/7, so we often open many apps while using it. There is a possibility of lags on the watch due to these background applications that run in the background. The good news is that you can get your iOS Watch working smoothly again by turning it off and clearing the random-access memory (RAM).
This article aims to explain how to turn on or off your iWatch (as mundane as it may seem). We’ll also show you how to save power on your iOS Watch by using Battery Reserve as an alternative.
Why Turn Off Your Apple Watch Once in a While?
If you’re an occasional iOS Watch wearer, you might want to turn it off when you’re not using it. That way, you can save some battery life and maybe even prolong the lifespan of your watch’s battery.
Plus, if you have any issues with your iOS Watch, a restart might help fix the problem. And if all else fails, you can always factory reset your Apple Watch, which will erase all its contents and start fresh.
How to Turn Off Your iOS Watch
Apple Watch is a very useful device. But it can also be a pain, and I’m not talking about the physical pain. We all know how great that is. I’m talking about the mental pain, the nagging feeling that you need to check it every 5 minutes to ensure that it hasn’t been stolen, that it hasn’t run out of battery, or that you haven’t lost it. But let me tell you about the real pain.
Turning off your iOS Watch is pretty simple. Just press and hold the side button until the power off slider appears. Then, drag the slider to the right to turn off your watch.
If you have an original Apple Watch without Force Touch, you’ll need to press and hold the side button for a few seconds until the power off slider appears.
Once your watch is off, you can turn it back on by pressing and holding the side button again.
How to Wake Up an iOS Watch?
AppleWatch is a nice gadget, but you can’t use it without knowing how to wake it up. If you’re not sure how to turn off your iOS Watch, don’t worry. You can easily wake your watch by pressing the side button or the Digital Crown.
Pressing the side button will bring up the power off slider, so you can turn off your watch if you want. But if you want to check the time or notifications, you can press the Digital Crown to wake up your watch.
If your watch is off and you want to turn it back on, press the side button until the iOS logo appears.
How to Turn on Apple Watch Power Reserve?
AppleWatch has a power reserve, which will turn on automatically when your iOS Watch is idle for a few hours.
If you want to conserve battery life on your iOS Watch, you can enable Power Reserve. This will disable all features on your watch except for the time, so you can still tell what time it is even when it is inactive.
To turn on Power Reserve, press and hold the side button until the power off slider appears. Then, drag the slider to the left to enter Power Reserve mode.
Your watch will stay in Power Reserve mode until you charge it or press and hold the side button to restart your watch.
