I found this article and I am trying all the suggestions they mentioned to preserve battery life. I guess I won’t know if it makes a difference until tomorrow night!

My remaining battery yesterday at the end of day was 80 percent. I changed back the setting for raise to wake so we’ll see if that makes a difference. I’m happy with the 80 percent of course!

I changed back the setting for raise to wake so we’ll see if that makes a difference.

Rather than switching that setting back and forth, turn raise to wake on for good and just swipe up on the watch to open control center and turn on Theater Mode. This turns off raise to wake (and also on notifications) until you toggle Theater Mode off again. I wear my watch to bed to track sleep and use Theater Mode to prevent the watch lighting up except when I want to see the time.
