How to Use Apple Watch Low Power Mode

Apple Watch Low Power Mode (Power Reserve)

With the release of watchOS 9, Apple has made a couple of changes to the battery saver mode in Apple Watch. In older versions of watchOS, Power Reserve was the only way to ensure that your Apple Watch could survive for longer than a few days without being recharged. However, with watchOS 9, you can use the new low power mode to extend your battery life.

In this article, we will take a look at enabling and disabling low power mode on your watch. Plus, we will also take a look at the features low power mode will turn off to save battery and a quick comparison between the new low power mode and the old power reserve mode.

How to Enable Low Power Mode

If your Apple Watch is running out of battery, you can quickly enable low power mode. There are two ways to do this.

When your Apple Watch is running low on battery (10% charge remaining), it will prompt you to either charge your Apple Watch or put it on low power mode. If you enable low power mode via this prompt, it will automatically turn off once your Apple Watch has been charged up to 80%.

How to Disable Low Power Mode

In case you don’t want to use low power mode any longer, you can easily disable it as well. Once again, there are two ways you can do this.
