Power management #1

I "think" the mini app is pulling a lot of power. The Amazfit battery life should be about 24 days (500 mAh battery) but I get about a day in AOD on and about two days with AOD off. Something is pulling a lot of power. My guess would be the Bluetooth. If the Bluetooth is always "up" and pulling data (for example) every 3-4 minutes then the total consumption may be quite high. If the screen is "off" then you only need to do a pull request once the watch is looked at (maybe once per 30-60' in addition).

With AOD "on" then some balance may be needed (pull once per 20' maybe?) and pull when display activates

Initially, the code was not designed for AOD. I'll check the possibilities to make the communication in AOD mode. Thank you

Hey all, regarding battery life: on my GTR3 Pro it lasts about 1day with AOD on, but about 10days with AOD off. So not really a difference. If adk for 24days, then i would asume you have the none PRO Gtr3. Maybe thats the cause, since this is not yet supported. Am i right, Artem?

i never used aod since i dodnt see the use of it when there is lift-to-wake gesture. without aod i got like 10 days out of my gts4mini. first charge since i got it so we will see. for now it looks equal to the gts2mini which had the old watchface upload every 5 minutes. but that could have been longer if i didnt develop my watchface for 3 days constantly pushing new faces to the watch every 10 minutes.

lift-to-wake gesture also eats a lot of juice
