Low battery notifications

Low Battery Notifications alert you when your NOWATCH battery is running low, so you can charge it in time and avoid missing data.

Where can you see the battery level

  1. Open the app and tap the Now tab.

  2. In the top right corner, you’ll see a watch icon with a number and percentage next to it — that’s your battery level.

  3. You can also tap the watch icon to open the Device Details screen.

  4. At the top of this screen, your battery level is displayed inside the watch icon. Below the battery level, you can confirm the device is properly connected to the app. 

How to enable & disable low battery notification

  1. Open the app and tap the Now tab.

  2. Tap the gear icon (Settings) in the top right corner of the screen.

  3. Under Settings, toggle Low battery notification on. If you'd like to disable it, toggle the option off.

The notification will be triggered in the following scenarios:

  • The feature is enabled in the app.

  • The battery level drops to between 0% and 25%, while the NOWATCH app is open or running in the background.

  • The app has the required Notifications and Nearby Devices permissions enabled in your phone Settings.
