If you own one of the older models Apple Watch, so you've probably already encountered the fact that the watch simply "doesn't keep up" and sometimes crashes. In this case, the classic answer is "buy a newer model". But in today's guide, we will show that using a simple function you can give your Apple Watch a second wind and save thousands of crowns for a new device. It all boils down to activating the feature to limit animations on your Apple Watch. This will reduce the complexity of the operating system and slightly reduce battery consumption. So let's see how to do it.

Second wind for Apple Watch
In order to give your Apple smartwatch a second life, you will need to have the iPhone with which the watch is paired at hand. Then open the application in it Watch and in the bottom menu, make sure you are in the tab My watch. Then get off below and click open option In general. In the new window, move to Disclosure and click the box Limit movement. Here, the function of the same name is enough activate. Enabling Limit Motion will limit many animations and other effects that your Apple Watch hinder.
BONUSES: If you want to speed up the watch even more, you can go back to Disclosure and unclick the box Reduce transparency, in which it suffices activate function of the same name. Activating Reduce Transparency will increase the contrast to improve readability on some backgrounds - especially transparent ones. Even rendering transparent backgrounds needs some power that can be used for something else entirely.
As I mentioned several times, if you activate the Restrict Motion function, the system will speed up. However, the system will speed up even on new ones Apple Watch, because the animations used are simpler and, above all, much shorter. In addition, I have also met users who like simpler animations more than complicated ones. So this trick can be used and tried by all apple watch users.
That's probably not quite a trick. It's old advice from the days of 4S and iOS8, when acceleration was noticeable.
You can refresh the advice when you have an older device with a battery below 90%
yes, everything needs to be switched on both on mobile and macbook and enjoy life
I don't turn off anything... why do I have the watch... and even a complete mobile phone and its functions... I naively thought that if I had everything turned off, my battery would last longer and I don't know what makes everything go faster and fart... it's the same at least emotionally... and that is the most important .. FEEL... and if my battery dies after 20 hours of driving, I already have it in the charger a long time ago, so it's all only in my head ..
I agree with Tuzex, it's really not much.
Nice trick. I didn't think to look for this on the watch and it works well. From time to time you write something that people don't know yet. I praise
I did similar tricks with the iPhone SE, so if you have an AW 4, it's probably irrelevant. But IMHO a good guy.
