I bought the watch mainly to use for cycling and to use Strava on it.

I cannot stop the watch using battery - for instance today it used 20% of battery on a 45 minute ride.  On longer rides it can barely last out the ride.


when using the watch to record only location services are on, no bluetooth, wifi or 3G.

Is this level of battery use normal?

Hi I heard there's an issue with the galaxy Wear app draining the battery, the solution given is to uninstall the Wear app & that should fix the battery drain, give it a try.

I'd assume so, give it a try.

But the app is on my phone, not the watch as far as I know so would this help the watch?
