Yes. The battery has been dead since April

As soon as its silent alarm wakes me up in the morning I put it on the charger. It stays there until I finish my morning getting ready routine, shower, get dressed, eat breakfast, etc. I take it off the charger and put it back on right after breakfast every day. Other than that it is on my wrist about 23 hours a day.
Me. I only take it off every 2-2.5 days to charge it.
I wear it once every two weeks nowadays… I don’t need it really
I wear mine 24X7 except when shower or it needs charging.
I have for a few years now... since early, mid 2020.
I wear at night for sleep tracking with the SleepWatch app. really helped me with measuring and then fixing my sleeping patterns. Huge benefit to get sleep right in your life.
Charge watch in the mornings while I'm getting ready (shower, breakfast etc). Series 6 with Solo Braided Loop. so comfortable and I genuinely could not tell if I was wearing the watch or not at any time (by feel)
I just last week treated myself to an update with an Ultra 2 and was worried it would be TOO BIG for sleeping comfortably. So far it's not an issue at all. The only difference I notice is the "sharp edge" on the Ultra, compared to the rounded edges of the Series watches... means I can feel the watch dragging against the sheets under the pillow when I move... weird to describe and it's not really an issue... but a noticeable difference... probably after a couple more weeks I won't even notice. I have the TRAIL LOOP that came with the watch and it's very comfortable, equivalent to the BRAIDED LOOP I would say.
I've got heart and sleep problems so I definitely keep mine on 24/7 other than to charge every few days and shower.
I charge it in the morning when I’m having breakfast and again before I go to bed. I wear it as much as possible because of my afib and to monitor my sleep. Then there’s exercise, text and call alerts, feedback when I’m driving with maps, and sometimes I want to know what the time and temp is. And I’m sure I’m forgetting something.
No. It requires charging at least every two days.
My APU1 last 2.5-3 days on a charge so I use it till it alerts me to charge. Charging takes like 15 mins. So it works perfectly.
I usually only charge it when I shower in the morning or an extra charge as needed when I work in front of the computer
Definitely
It’s really helped me - I have ADHD so setting timers, reminders, staying off my phone, etc has been really helpful. Has unironically been a utility purchase for me vs a fun purchase like a gaming console.
I would but my aw4 is starting to die
Wear it 24/7 and track all health analytics in the Athlytic app
I kept my S6 when I updated to the S7 and I wear the old one while I’m sleeping. The only time I’m not wearing it is in the shower.
I take it off at night. Wore it at night for a few weeks to check my sleep patterns but then got bored.
Only ever comes off to charge.
I only take it off to charge it
Nope. I wear it 22.5/7 1.5hrs for charging SE Gen2
Oura ring at night for the sleep tracking, charge when I’m showering then watch goes on for the rest of the day. I bought the Oura a few years ago and don’t want to break the streak. If the ring gives up the ghost then it’s watch all day every day.
Serious question: As RN, 1000% agree w/sleep science + health benefits. I do NOT get hyper-focus on sleep tracking EVERY day. Why track so much + what action do ppl take w/that data?
My apple watch's batter wont let me
Only comes off to be charged before bed
I wear mine 24/7 unless it needs a charge or I’m wearing my Grand Seiko for a dressier occasion.
24/7 for me. If you got into settings and turn on Afib on your watch it takes more HRV readings. I have a band which can go on my wrist but also adjust to wear higher up my arm. So if I want to wear my fancy watch I just have the watch at the top of my forearm under a shirt.
I've been collecting HR data since Series 0
all the time, i charge it while sedentary at my desk working, i wear it in the shower too (yes i know you’re not supposed to). the only actual time it’s off my wrist is when im in the sauna or steam room
well it’s a watch sooo…yes lol
Me. The only time that my Apple Watch is not on my wrist is that it is on the charger when I am in the shower
I wear my AWU2 24/7. I charge it every 2.5 days.
I take it off to sleep. It's hard for me to sleep with it on.
I do. I charge it when I take a shower at night, brush my teeth, wash my face. Once I’m done with all of that and ready to read a bit before bed (or watch a few shows) the watch is completely charged and ready to go.
Yep. But I usually switch to my garmin for training. Then back to Ultra.
Do you like your garmin better for training? I was thinking about switching over to Garmin once
I love both watches. But for training Garmin ( mine Tactix 7 pro )is always my choise. Bigger screen, better app and algorithms. Offline gps whitout any need to purchase or subscription. Touch screen is very poor while training outdoors. While swimming ultra has very poor gps and water lock makes very complicated to switch data pages and commands. Battery life has no comparison. MIL display is not so cool but you can train and hiking for very long time. Otherwise Ultra is very cool for everyday use. Looks good at booth work and formal event and oblivious in spare time. Is good if you have a recreative running or some Kind of sport. Also you can switch an infinite numbers of wrist band. It’s also smaller and much light than my garmin. I think for me habit is a factor. I’d start training many years ago with garmin and switch to ultra is very difficult.
24/7
Yup. Only take it off to take shower and to charge. It's a watch, but you're supposed to wear it
3 years ago me and my wife bought our watches together. 44mm both. She doesn’t use it any more so now I use both. When one battery gets low I switch to the other. So yeah 24/7
Wear an Ultra for 23 hours/day and have a backup 8 SS that I wear when the Ultra is charging. Probably overkill, but I’m fine with that.
