Abstract

Methods, devices, and computer programs are presented for managing power consumption in an activity monitoring device associated with a user. One method includes an operation for analyzing sensor data acquired by sensors of an activity monitoring device to be worn on a wrist of a user, the sensor data being associated with motion of the user. In addition, the method includes an operation for determining the motion profile of the activity monitoring device based on the sensor data. The method further includes an operation for identifying display settings for a display of the activity monitoring device based on the motion profile. The display settings are associated with a rate of power consumption by the display. The display settings are applied to the display of the activity monitoring device when the identified display settings are different than the current display settings.
