Can the watch battery be replaced?

No, the watch battery is built to last for the lifetime of the device and is not replaceable. If you believe the battery performance is faulty, please contact our Technical Support team for assistance.

Remember: regular nightly charging is important. Also, poor mobile coverage can cause the watch to drain its battery faster as it searches for a network.
