How Long Does the Battery Last? Tips and Tricks for extending performance

Updated July 28, 2026

Captify Pro is designed for all-day use with intelligent power features. Below is everything you need to know about battery life, charging behavior, and ways to extend performance between charges.

Battery Life Overview

  • 3–4 hours of continuous captioning in binocular mode (both lenses active)
  • Up to 6 hours in monocular mode (one lens active — ideal for extended use)
  • 48-hour standby mode — glasses remain ready but in low-power state

Charging and Usage

  • Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 38 minutes
  • You can use the glasses while charging
  • To check battery status during charging, press the power button (bottom of right arm) once to view the battery percentage on the display

Tips to Maximize Battery Life

  • Use monocular mode when both lenses aren’t needed (Settings → Display → Lens Mode)
  • Lower caption brightness in Settings for reduced power consumption
  • Use standby mode instead of turning the glasses off completely between uses
  • In Settings → Set Display Timeout, set a short timeout (e.g., 30 seconds) so the display dims quickly when not in use
  • Turn off live captions when not actively needed

LED Battery Status Indicators

  • Orange LED: Charging in progress
  • Green LED: Fully charged
