My AppleWatch 3 seems to keep too many apps running, especially the Music app. Seems to me they are accounting for my battery running down in 15 hrs.
I want to turn off the music app, but not remove it, as I do use it sometimes.
How do I do this?

Open the music app on your Apple Watch.
Then hold the button beneath your Crown for a few seconds until you see the Power Off menu.
Then hold the Crown for a few seconds until the Power Off menu disappears.

This will stop the music app from running. It’s similar to swiping up an app from the task switcher on an iPhone.
