Galaxy watch no longer goes totally dark when it times out

[userscP4d3VJ5l]

Hello,

During the last few days my Galaxy Watch no longer goes totally dark when it times out.  Instead, it dims to ~50% brightness.  The exception is when Goodnight Mode is activated.  I've searched through the settings but cannot find anything I may have accidentally changed or can "fix."  My battery is draining much faster during the day as a result.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Did you check to see if you have Watch always on in settings and then watch faces then scroll down {watch always on} is turned off? Hope this helps

That was it.  Thank you!  I was looking under settings in the Wearable App instead of on the watch itself.  I don't know how it was switched to always on, but it is fixed now.

Glad that worked for you!!
