> watchOS: Fast Charging Indication The Apple Watch Ultra’s battery life is fantastic. It has transformed the way I use my Apple Watch while out on long wilderness hikes. The small downside to this amazing capacity is that charging the battery up can take a very long time, especially if you aren’t doing a ‘fast charge’.

<p>Android, specifically - Google's Pixel got this right. That's a very useful notification. I think _david smith is right to ask the same from iOS and Watch OS. </p>
