Sleep as Android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.urbandroid.sleep) has an Android Wear component that detects your movement. It does work with Moto 360. Just make sure you have your battery charged ahead of time. It consumed about 30% over 8 hours.

It kills my watch battery before the morning. Does it kill yours?

Kills my 360 as well. I reported this to the developer and he blamed it on the "old" processor. Claimed the Gear Live works better. I happen to have a Gear Live so I tested that with this app and got the same result. A dead battery before I woke up 8 hours later.
Love the app, but the battery killing kills the app for me.

I generally try to charge my watch before, but generally lose about 40% of over night running the app.

OK, I take that back. Installed Facer and one of the Sinn watch-faces, this morning my watch was dead when I woke up. My early assumption is that using a Facer plus Sleep as Android will drain the battery. I will try it tonight with a stock watch-face to see how the battery handles the sleep tracking.

Has anyone got their watch to last the night? I got the update for the Moto 360 so I'm going to switch to a stock face and charge up before bed.

No luck here, I turned this feature off because it would rather be able to charge my watch up to 100% in the morning before I leave for work than get accurate sleep statistics from my watch.
Hoping that they'll improve it.

Yeah, mine didn't make it either. I'm glad the watch gets a full charge in about an hour.

My Moto 360 has been working well with sleep as android. I usually have about 30% battery remaining.

have anyone tried to work with this app while the moto360 set to flightmode ?

not yet, but i will try.....
so far i make sure at 9pm i charge my 360.... go to bed with like 90%
in the morning its low... only killed it once... but it has been ok to get me to 70% or so with 25 min charge while i get ready

well... i've tried to sleep with the 360 for a few times ... its too bulky to sleep with.
rolled back to the miband.

Using LG G watch
I've been using Sleep as Android for the past week with my LG G watch and found it only uses about 15-20% of the battery overnight, so with a normal days usage and then a nights sleep im left with about 20% most mornings. Maybe the dev has made some updates recently ans its worth a revisit?
My charge cycle is now in the morning while I'm having brekky and getting for the day, not so bad.....

Morning All,
how do I start the app?
when I start it from the wear launcher, nothing appearant happens, if I start it from my phone (MotoX 1.Gen.) it keeps saying 'waiting for connection'.
What am I doing wrong?
TIA!

did u enabled smartwatch on the app settings??
because i use wear mini launcher, and when i click on it, in a few seconds, it connects to my phone

I got a 40% decrease per night. Given the time the battery usually last, is hard to do much better with the MOTO 360. I simply let it charge when I arrive home after dinner, so I can sleep with it fully charged, and let it charging while getting ready in the morning. Never had a problem of it killing my battery if it was full. Tried with watch apps, and some take it to real kill the battery. I suppose if your watchface reacts to the watch being active, it will drain the baterry. Bu I am using a custom (weather, calendar, time in different timezones) and no problem with Sleep As Android. Also developer had improved a lot since the first posts, so it is the best option and works pretty well with MOTO 360. Better battery buy a pebble

Did exactly the same, wear launcher as well.
Following your steps I just get sort of a timeout message on the watch.
Could it be, that the app portion on the watch somehow is stuck on an old version?

[Help] Huge, abnormal battery drain in Moto 360 [Solved]

Hello guys,
I need your help i'm getting huge battery drain now it's 3-5% 'sometimes more' each 15min even though i'm on the latest update -i hope this isn't the normal 360-
Today i took it off the charger it was 100% at exactly 6:05 and by 13:00 it was completely off , with very very light usage (got no calls,2 or 3 emails) little bit music controls (nearly 5min).
For those who wondering i'm using stock face with only one application which is the mini launcher.
Any ideas?
Thanks alot

First step I'd do is a reset of the watch.

Thanks for the reply dude, so this is abnormal right?
How much battery are you getting?

It's clear not normal, try reseting the watch, uninstalling the wear app an reinstalling it, letting the watch settle with a couple of discharge cycles, from 100% all the way down to 0% and when you recharge it, just recharge it till it's done ( I mean the hour it took to do so, dont left it on the charge all the night)
I've been getting better battery life doing this, at the beggining I was as bad as you are now.

i'll do so , thanks alot, appreciate your help

To give you an idea with the newest update yesterday I took my watch off the charger at 6:30am and put it back on the charger 11:55pm and still had 26% left. So that's a little over 17hrs.
I had numerous texts, a few emails, voice responded to a few texts, controlled music for about 45mins and used it to track a 1.5mile walk which took a little over 30mins.
I have a few apps installed such as wear mini, flopsy, keep, ifttt, level, pixtocam, watch app tracker, and UP.

Hey guys, thanks a lot .. i thought to give you the update,
So after resetting the watch and re installing Android Wear app there was an incredible difference,now the battery is lasting the whole day - from 11:00pm till the next day 9:00 pm and i am still on 30% with medium usage-
Thanks for the tips.

For a real reset, follow these instructions:

Reset worked for me
I just wanted to say I also experienced this issue and it was solved by following these directions. I was getting around 20 hours of run time until the update last weekend. Then it suddenly fell to only about 7.5 hours of run time. I couldn't even make it through a day of work. I had tried restarting and even installed a Wear Task Manager and did a kill all and could still practically watch my percentage drop. I performed the full reset last night. Today I am currently at 80% after being on battery for 5 hours so I think everything is back to normal and I should easily see a full day of use again.
Thanks!

The short story of why this works:
Developers used to put their Wear apks in the assets folder, that stopped working with the new Android Wear revision. Now it is packaged in res/raw.
Old packages were cached and it was a disaster. My watch was drained 30% at every reboot and it would install old programs on the watch that I haven't had on there in quite some time.

I just bought the moto 360 and love it so far... I keep reading different post of how the batter life diminished from last update... Since I did not have the watch before the last update I can't compare them... So how long should the battery last with medium usage... I responded some text and received a few emails already today and it's down to 72% in 5hrs...does that sound about right?

If you got the watch brand new, you need 6 days to break it in

I'm having a similar problem to OP.
I can't get much use out of my Moto 360 at all.
I just reset the device and uninstalled and reinstalled Android Wear on my phone. Took 10% just to reset and got through the initial setup. 90% after 3 minutes of use? How is that even possible?
I'm getting ready to return this thing. It's infuriating.
Attached is a picture of my use at work today. Ridiculous.
That's using a facer watchface and VERY few apps and not having Fit installed on my phone.

Have you done the reset where you clear watch data from Google play services?

I just bought my 360 last weekend and I noticed the battery got better each day after....the 1st 2 days I had to charge it late afternoon...yesterday I took it off the charger at 6am and at 11pm I still had 20% left...once you begin using the watch normally without tweaking it constantly the real life of the battery will show

was getting...
I originally got ok battery before "THE" update. Got great battery after the update, but now I'm back to just ok or even worse than before the original firmware . Does anyone know what was changed or who to contact?

That is 100% normal when using Facer. It's "watchfaces" are just apps that run 24/7...
Try another reset but this time no Facer :good:
(If you want custom faces use Moto's built in one that lets you make a custom face from a picture)

I've done the recommended clearing of the Play Services, resets, etc... My watch used to lose approx. 45% in 8hrs. Now... my watch is losing approx. 12% per hour. This just started happening approx. 1 week ago. I truly believe it has something to do with Play Services but no way of really knowing.

Horrible Battery Life even after multiple restarts and resets

Hey guys,
I reset the Moto 360 multiple times, didn't install any apps any other than keep and wear battery stats and still have a horrible battery life. The Moto 360 is used very lightly, so only some Notifications and sometimes a voice command and I get a drain of about 5-6%/hour or even more... So when i charge the watch to 100% at 6:30 am it does;t even last till midnight even though I barely use it. And that with the black classic stock watchface !! I made a test and reset the device again and wanted to see how much it drained in the night when I'm not using it at all, and it was 3%/hour which is terrible considering that this is the drain that some users here get with light usage! I would be happy if the watch would last from 6:30 am till 2:00 am next morning and some people seem to get amazing battery life. So I'm thinking of returning the device and getting a new Moto 360 because I'm really getting desperate.. Any Ideas from you guys? :/

5 to 6 percent per hour is normal

So it is also normal that it barery lasts 16 hours even though lots of people in the forum claim to get 48 hours(!!) so a 3 times longer battery life than I do ?

My average is 2.5 %/hour with moderate usage.

So you think I should return my watch? Because I don't get how u can achieve a battery life as great as yours. Maybe I got a bad device?

That's very difficult to answer. Currently I've installed additionally:
Facer
Calendar
File Manager Wear
Calculator
Triple game
Wear Battery Stats
Wear Mini Launcher
I use a Facer watchface ('Radiomir' with hour, minute, seconds, date and battery level), I don't play music, I do get around 60-80 notifications daily including those for breaking news, weather, emails from 2 accounts, workplace/home driving maps, I have disabled step-counter and ambient light mode, brightness is set to auto ...

Try "Advanced Task Manager" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=wear.taskman to see wich app/face is running on your watch. Wear launch itself many face even if you do not use them. If nothing is running.... but if not .....

I use this. It works pretty good. I get about 3-4% a hour!!!

Problems after 5.0.1 update

I updated a couple of days ago to the android wear 5.0.1 OS and the latest android wear app...
Great work was done on the watchface API. Watchfaces are now more organized and accessible..
The biggest problem I'm facing now is the huge Battery Drain.
Watch can no longer last through the day.. I put it on at atound 6:30 in the morning.. At 2:30 PM, I'll be down to 15%.
What good is a watch if it can't last a normal day?
I think i might have jumped on the android wear wagon too soon.
Now I'm stuck with a useless device in my wrist.

Do you have a lot of 3rd party apps for the watch? I"m just guessing but it could be that these 3rd party apps aren't optimized to work with 5.0.1. Perhaps you could remove those apps and see how it goes.
And I assume that you've already done a reset?

I've made it through about 16 hours and am down to 46%. What are you doing to run it down so much? I have wrist activation turned off and ambient mode turned off. I do have Facer running with a watch face that gives weather and battery stats, but that's the only thing that would drain my battery.

I have not reset... I have two third party apps.. A compass and phone lost detection..
I'll reset and feedback here.. Good advice man thanks.

I have the same problem once i got the update even facer also updated battery life is bad again

Im having the same problem also. But after turn off BT a night, next day turn in again, the problem fix magically. Problem now is sometimes having difficulty to charge it. Need to turn off BT again then only can fully charge. Btw, didnt reset after system update.[/QUOTE]

Uninstall phone lost detection app, that improved my battery life vastly

Same thing happened to me. I usually take my watch off the cradle around 8am and get home from work around 6pm. Usually have about 60% life remaining. I'm using just the built in digital watch face. Today was my first full day on 5.0.1 update and my watch died before 3pm. I can't believe it. Hoping it's just a fluke. Think I'll go one more day and if it happens again will try a reset.

The reset did improved the battery performance for me.
I don't see any harm in resetting as this is a watch after all, so little will be lost.
However, the battery performance surely improved but it did not return the watch to the same battery performance as before the update.
I used to pick up the watch at 6:30 AM and put it on the dock at 11:30 PM with 48-50 percent left.
Now I pick it up at 6:30 and put it on the dock at 10 PM with 15 percent left. But it's still surely an improvement before the reset and after the update (I got only 5 hours before I decided to reset)
I still haven't installed ANY third party apps at all. I can only imagine how the performance will decrease if I install phone lost detection or any other Bluetooth-demanding apps.

i am finding that i'm getting slightly less battery life, but i make it through the day fine. i'm starting to wonder how much the accelerometer is killing battery. they finally integrated the option to disable "tilt to wake" and i have seen an improvement only at work where moving my hands on the keyboard. on the weekends, when i'm just wearing/walking, etc., tilt to wake makes no difference.

I got the latest 5.0.1 update on my watch seem like battery life is back! Im at 65% and its 4pm I removed it from the charger at around 5am .
My previous problem was I had the 4.4w on my watch and Facer that was on Android 5.0 . That was the reason for the bad battery life.

I've been on 5.0.1 for a couple days now and while battery life seems unchanged to me, the watch does seem to have a hard time charging to 100%. I got home from work and put it on the charger and usually it charges to 100% within an hour. Now I noticed it would get to about 85-90% and stop charging completely. The blue circle charging screen stays on but it doesn't keep charging. I left it on the charger all night and it was at 86% when I picked it up in the morning. Anyone else seeing this issue?

I have pretty much the same issue with my Moto 360, except in my case I only get to 75~78%, less than yours. I've been googling here and there about this one, but so far no luck with fixes or workarounds. I've e-mailed Motorola and, although I don't except a lot from them, hopefully they get back to me with something useful.

i think i noticed this also! hovered around 85% -ish.
i just took it off the charger, put it back and then it has not happened since. this was a couple days ago.
stock stock stock all the way homie! latest updates. nex 6 paired.

Yeah seems ok to me now too. Strange.

Galaxy Watch Battery Life

My galaxy watch would normally get 3-4 days of battery life. After this latest patch, I get 2 if Im lucky. Currently running 18 hours on my latest charge, Ive dropped from 100 to 52%. Battery history shows the watch face consuming most of it. The watch face Im using is dark, no light features. Any ideas?

Second party watchface battery draining can come from many factors and in your case, you should first go back to a simple Samsung OEM WF to check if it is the culprit and also the AOD.

No problems here. BT version. Every day using shealth for workout. Without it 6 days.View attachment 4787623

I do not use AOD. However, Facer does appear to be the culprit. Removing it my battery life is now 4-5 days.
Any other watch face apps that I should consider that are better on battery life?

Never had it turned on.

Just try different ones is all I can say. I imagine that that drain issue isn't gonna be common with other faces since you said it only started happening after an update of the watch face (so it might actually get fixed soon). I use Dashboard that came with it.

I believe I fixed the battery of my watch by denying the Galaxy Wear app to run in the background. No loss of functionality, it just keeps asking to allow it every time I open the app.
