always on

[ep1]

dose the always on use up your battery?

Yes. Samsung says it doesn't use up that much battery, but it does use some.

I had it in for a while and didn't notice a difference in battery usage. It obviously uses some, but not a lot

I can get the clock up there how do I add other things.

You only have three options. Calendar, Clock or Image.

Love it I don't have a watch so this feature helps especially at work.

It uses very very little. I have it on all the time and get excellent battery life.

With the aod enabled, I get about 1% an hour idle

On the AT&T GS7, it would appear that this feature is disabled in power saving mode but once attached to the charger, it is enabled. Is this correct?

it's a battery suck...uses about 1% per hour, sometimes a bit more...really comes down to whether that kind of wear and tear on the battery affects your day...On my AT&T version, kept it on and 12 hours off the charger, was down to 15%, with 2.5 hrs of screen time. Shut it off, had 35% left after the same amount of time, similar screen time...(was camping....not great cell signal,but not aweful)
