Apple Watch Optimized Charging

I use my watch, among other things, to track my sleep so I normally charge it first thing in the morning. Optimized charging is based on my “habits”: when I take the watch off the charger. My habits are based on when it charges the watch to 100%. Because it isn’t charging I wait to take it off the charger. I’d take the watch off the charger sooner if it charged but it doesn’t because it doesn’t think I want the watch until later.


Sometimes I use more battery during the day and charge it (top it off) for 15 minutes before bed. Does it now think that ‘because I charge it before bed’ it doesn’t need to fully charge it during the day?


I feel like a dog chasing its tail.
