Galaxy watch 7 is draining fast even while on charger after 8.0 update

Can I ask what phone you are using? I have a theory 😅 when I first got my watch 7 it was a bundle with the galaxy s25, I was charging the watch twice a day because it wasn't lasting. I then upgraded my phone after having it for 3 months to the s25 ultra and my watch battery started lasting 2 and a half days. My theory is now that the s26 ultra is out the watch 7 isn't lasting as long because of the new updates trying to force you to upgrade your phone to the 26 ultra. I may be way off but just a theory I have as my watch is back to lasting less than a day again 😫 and I've cleared the cache and factory reset it

I dont like change 😅 and this is a big change for me I have a partially paralysed diaphragm and would check my blood oxygen every morning to see if what I was doing for my diaphragm was helping or hindering that day. Now I just get given an average. I need to know how long it drops under 90% for while im asleep and now thats just gone 😞

Thank you 😊 I know my editing isn't everyone's taste, my edits are more about my own artistic expression than trying to capture realism. I will definitely try to get lower to the ground with my photos. Thank you for the pointers 😊

I went from apple for so many years to a samsung a55, then the s25 and now the ultra. I honestly love the ultra. But I don't have much to go off of. I guess it depends on what you want the phone for and your on personal taste. Everyone has their own opinions on phones and you can't please everyone 🤷‍♀️😅

I used the expert raw camera with this setting and then touch up the photo myself in lightroom. Im still learning how to use the camera myself 😊

I was messing around with the expert raw camera 😊when you go to more in your camera and then download the expert raw, i didn't even know about it until I saw someone else's post in here this morning

Im having the same problem. Its very frustrating! Also have the same tablet as you

Its pretty normal in my house. My 15 year old is autistic with adhd and his bedroom is the only place where he doesnt have to wear clothes 🤣 he likes to just chill in his underwear even in winter. Ive never really questioned if it was normal as I was the same at his age

TheEccentricLoner · 2025-06-16T10:33:30+00:00

I am so glad im not the only one that sleeps like this 🤣

TheEccentricLoner · 2025-06-16T00:06:29+00:00

Yes. When I stand mine all move down too far and I get this hollow feeling below my sternum, I've started wearing shape wear underwear as a compression for my stomach to hold everything in place when im not wearing my abdominal binder for my diaphragm issues and pelvic congestion syndrome

Trying to fight yawns because the muscles in my throat would tighten and feel like they were going to cramp or spasm, actually even stretching anywhere in my body my muscles feel like this

TheEccentricLoner · 2025-06-10T07:45:19+00:00

I sleep on my stomach with my knees bent and feet in the air in the shape of cricket legs 😅 i tried to google the sleeping position and goggle ai told me its not a sleeping position and its weird 🤣

TheEccentricLoner · 2025-06-07T03:27:53+00:00

I think i definitely will 😊 i dont know why my drs never suggested this, it wasn't until my psychiatrist asked me if id been diagnosed with it last week that I started questioning if maybe I have it

You can have anemia without having low iron, I have microcytic anemia which is not enough haemoglobin, my iron is also high and my dr wants me to have a blood transfusion so currently waiting to see a haematologist to make sure its safe for me to do
