After exiting any health menu, double-press the Watch Back button to return to the watch face. (Double-pressing the Back key will not return to the main menu of the Samsung Health app)

4) Delete Data and Close Background Apps

Open the Galaxy Wearable >> tap the Watch Settings  >> press the About Watch option >> click on Storage >> tap Image or Audio >> Click the Delete button.

5) Power Saving mode 

When power saving mode is on, your watch’s home screen will be shown in grayscale and all functions will be turned off except for calls, messages, and notifications that use Bluetooth. Wi-Fi and mobile data will also be turned off, and performance will be limited.

From Galaxy Watch 5 Settings, open the Battery section and tap on Power saving mode to turn it on. Also, you can turn it on through Quick Menu.

6) Turn off Network connections

Some of the apps and features that we cannot use without Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or mobile network connection. Turn on only the connection functions you need, you can turn off all the rest to save battery.

To turn on some connections, swipe up on the Watch screen and open Settings. Tap Connections, you can turn off the Mobile network and Wi-Fi.

You should customize notifications as per your preference. Open Settings on your watch >> Click on Notifications >> Tap on Advanced  Settings >> turn off the switches for Show with details and Turn on the screen.

8) Temperature

Temperature is also a factor in reducing watch battery life, exposing it to very cold or hot temperatures can cause damage.

9) Turn off the Watch Always on Display

Of course, the Always on Display function eats up a lot of battery. If you want to save it then from Settings of the Watch, open the Display section and tap on the Always on Display toggle to turn it off.
