Why don't you just turn off your Bluetooth on your phone for the watch 4?

Is there any particular reason you need to shut off the Bluetooth?

i would like to turn off bluetooth whenever charging watch 4 at least, that will save battery draining and improve charging time. i need to do this multiple times a day since its watch4 (worst battery capacity and long charging time).

I'm not sure If you're going to save that much charging time. I have the Galaxy watch 4 classic, And I usually get at least a day and a 1/2 out of my charge, sometimes 2 full days. The Bluetooth drain is so minimal that I don't think you're going to notice it. If it's that important to you, You could probably just set up a Bixby routine that shuts off Bluetooth while it's charging

its good to hear about your battery life. i feel that's not required while charging and easy if we could have slide down panel shortcut. i'm using watch 4 classic 42mm bluetooth version. i'm getting 1/2 with AOD, heartrate for every 10 min etc. i don't think bixby routine can be on watch 4 or phone do this task.

It really isn't using enough battery for you to notice while charging, But I hope you find what you're looking for
