i was charging my watch 4 on the back of my phone today, and after 30 min i only got 6% more battery on my watch 4.. thats pretty slow, i have used my phone to charge my old watch 1 before, and as i remember it worked just as fast as the charger at home.. has anyone tried to charge on the back of your phone??

Because I'm so lovely, I just tested this for you.

Charging a 46mm on an S21 ultra through a thick case for 30 minutes, the watch went from 50 to 65 and the phone from 91 to 81.

So I got 15% in 30 minutes.

AND, just to add more fuel to the fire, I got about the same here (using a Fold 3).

HOWEVER, I did also notice that unless I got the watch on the right spot, it would start charging and then stop until I found the "perfect" location to put it. >.<

It can be a bit of a pain, not sure it's the watch or the phone or user error (likely the 3rd as I almost never use this feature). :(

my watch was connectet alle the time, i was sitting right next to it, and i could see the clock on the screen, so there is something wrong with my watch :( how fast do you charge on the standard charger?, i put it on the charger when i got home, it said 2 huors and 5 minutes, and there was about 21% power on it.
