should i turn my apple watch off at night
I turn my watch off every night I thought to conserve the battery. But it is lower in the morning when I turn it back on. Should I just leave it on every night till it needs to be recharged?!?

Hi
It is not necessary to turn Apple Watch off overnight.
You may find it most convenient to charge your watch nightly, overnight. The watch cannot be overcharged and the battery will not suffer any harm from regular charging. Charging will stop automatically when the battery is fully charged and start again if and when required due to ongoing battery usage.
Apple advises that you can charge Apple Watch whenever you want. There is no need to let the battery discharge to any particular level first, nor any benefit to be gained from doing so:

When charging your Apple Watch, be sure to follow Apple's safety and handling instructions and also note that:
- It is not possible to turn the watch off whilst it is on the charger and connected to power - this is normal.
- It is also normal for your watch, power adapter and charging cable to become warm when connected to power.
