Hey there Samsung community,

I have purchased the Galaxy Watch Ultra lately, and i am currently facing a massive battery drain issue caused by the Alarm app. as you may find in the below attached screenshot.

48% is way too much, and that is only while sleeping wearing the watch, other than that the consumption seems fair.

So if someone has faced such an issue and solved it, I'll appreciate sharing the solution...

Thanks in advance...

To fix battery drain issues on a Samsung Galaxy Watch, including the "Watch Ultra," you can try the following steps:
* Identify the cause: Go to Settings > Battery and device care > Battery to see which apps are consuming the most power.
* Optimize app usage:
* Force-close or uninstall problematic apps: If a specific app is draining the battery, you can try force-closing it or, if possible, uninstalling and reinstalling it.
* Put apps to sleep: There is an option for "Sleeping apps." This is a key feature. Go to Settings > Apps > Sleeping apps and add any apps you don't need running in the background to this list. This will prevent them from consuming power when not in use.
* Adjust watch settings:
* Screen brightness and timeout: Lowering the screen brightness and setting a shorter screen timeout can significantly save battery.
* Always On Display (AOD): Turning off AOD will prevent the screen from staying on all the time.
* Location services: Turn off GPS and location services when you don't need them.
* Wi-Fi and Bluetooth: Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth when not in use.
* Heart rate monitoring: Change the heart rate measurement frequency from continuous to "every 10 minutes" or "manual" to save power.
* Software updates:
* Ensure your Galaxy Watch Ultra's software is up to date. Software updates often include battery optimizations and bug fixes. Go to Settings > Software update > Download and install.
* Factory Reset:
* If all else fails, a factory reset can sometimes fix persistent software issues. Make sure to back up your data before doing this, as it will erase everything on the watch. Go to Settings > General > Reset.
For the specific "Alarm app" issue, you should first check if there are multiple alarms set or if a third-party alarm app is being used. Deleting unnecessary alarms or switching to the default Samsung alarm app could solve the problem.
