My Sense needs to be charged ever third day

[tstmartin]

I have had my Sense for about a month and it is constantly needing to be charged. It barely last thee days. I bought it because it is advertised to last six days between charges. I am using it with an Android and I saw someone else reporting the same issue and the best answer was they are aware of the issue with the iPhone and are working to fix it. Anyone else having this issue with the Android? Is there a feature eating up battery that can be disabled?

@tstmartin Always On Display eats up a ton of battery. Also any sort of GPS-enabled exercise that you start from the Sense like Walk, Hike, Bike, and Run. So if you're frequently running or walking outside and doing the Walk or Run activity, that could eat up some of your battery. I believe Snore Detection also uses a lot of battery, but I have not tested that myself. I think also the SPo2 clock faces probably use more than normal, but I don't use them so I'm not 100% sure.

Personally, I charge mine about every 4-5 days. I do outdoor walks anywhere from 3-5 times per week and I workout every day so I use the Exercise app on my Sense a lot. But otherwise my battery life seems very acceptable to me.
