Turn off all sounds except alarm

Hello, I have the apple watch 6. Is there a way to turn off all sounds except the alarm?

I always have my watch on silent, but sometimes I don’t pay attention to all the haptics, so it would be nice to hear an alarm..

when cooking... or I take a nap in the middle of the day

thanks

Howdy jfranciskeys,

It's great to have you in the Apple Support Community. We understand that you would like to disable all sounds except for your alarms on your Apple Watch. We can help with that.

"Turn on Do Not Disturb

Touch and hold the bottom of the watch face. Wait for Control Center to show, then swipe up.
Tap the Do Not Disturb button Do Not Disturb icon, then choose an option. You can manually turn off Do Not Disturb or set it for a period of time, so it automatically turns off.

Do Not Disturb keeps calls and alerts (except for alarms) from sounding or lighting up the screen.

When enabled, the Do Not Disturb icon do not disturb icon or purple moon appears at the top of the screen."

Change the audio and notification settings on your Apple Watch

Cheers!
