Sense - Viewing battery life while charging

[darwynn]

Is there a way to view the actual battery life on the Sense while charging so that you don't have to hit the button or check from your phone to know that it's fully charged?  This seems like a no brainer that people would want so that you'll know that it's full and you can put it back on without going back to check.

Yes, go to the gallery and load the clock face SimpleClockPro. Not only does it tell you when the watch will be charged it shows progress constantly while charging, if you want. There may be others.

I don’t understand why you would want to keep coming back to check the watch face.

Just sync the app on your phone by swiping down on the today page. Battery status is top right.

I want the freedom to do other things while it is charging.

Because I want to see if it's done charging.  I'm pretty sure I specified that in my original post. 

Why would I want to open the app and swipe down to see what the battery level is? 

If you have zero to actually add to a post, try just not replying...

Thanks for the reply, Guy_!

Oh I see what you mean. Sorry I didn’t catch that. 
Now that I think about it, it’s a great way to every little step count. Looks like your getting a little over 4,600 step count average.  Get those 10,000!

@darwynnThanks, forgot to mention the clock face logs your charges, and if you don't like it you can easily switch to/from your favourite clock face by press and hold the current clock face and then choose the one you want. Works with the new firmware.44.128.5.38

The tip on changing the watch face is great! Never knew you could do that.

Trying. My knees don't always like to cooperate.
