El Battery save mode of the iPhone and the iPad reduces the amount of power used by devices when they are low on power. This reduction in energy limits some functionality of the devices but does not render them useless. In the case of the Apple Watch, until now there has been no saving mode, but when the battery reached the end of the battery, the screen turned black and could only be consulted at the time until the battery gave up permanently. Rumors suggest that watchOS 9 could bring a real Battery Saver mode, And that would be very good news.
Battery Saver mode is finally coming to watchOS 9
As we have been saying, the Save Battery mode of iOS and iPadOS allows you to limit the functions of the iPhone and iPad to preserve the battery as much as possible. For example, turning this mode on affects 5G connectivity, screen auto-lock, brightness, screen refresh rate, iCloud Photos, background email refresh, and background updates. All these functions reduce their activity or are deactivated until Battery Saver mode is deactivated.
watchOS, On the contrary, it has a mode of power reserve. It allows the user to know the time when the battery has reached its end. But the rest of the watch is completely useless. Perhaps this will change with the arrival of watchOS 9 according to Gurman. Apple may be considering including a Battery Saver mode that would allow the Apple Watch to run some apps and functions by limiting the battery they use. This would increase battery life and above all increase the efficiency of the Apple Watch Series 8 when it launches.
This is just another attempt by Apple to try to improve the autonomy of its smart watches. Because it has not increased in recent years. The arrival of this mode, a new chip and hardware optimization in the Series 8 would mean an increase in the autonomy of the future watch.
