Alarm sounds and taps

So my question is relating to the alarm feature in the Clock app. I recently got an apple watch and i do wear it to sleep, however, now when my alarm goes off, it only vibrates on my watch and sometimes that's not enough to wake me in the morning. How do I change the settings so that it can make an audible sound yet still have it vibrate on my watch when the alarm goes off?

I want my daily wake up to sound only on my watch When I got my Apple Watch and set up Sleep, the best surprise was that my alarm every morning sounded only on my watch. It no longer woke up anyone else. The vibration was nice too. So civilized. Unfortunately lately the alarm sounds only on my phone instead. I’ve been unable to find the control that helps me choose where the sound occurs. How do I go back to having the alarm only on the watch and with vibration too?

Alarm that chimes and vibrates on watch, but has to be turned off from phone. I’m looking for a way to have my wake up alarm in the morning vibrate and chime on my Apple Watch but also to turn it off from my phone and not be able to turn it off from my watch. Does that make sence? Please and thankyou 🙏

How can I make my Apple Watch vibrate vs haptic tapping on my wake-up alarm? I'm hoping this question makes sense. When I set my wake-up alarm on my Apple Watch, I get this somewhat faint, not very strong haptic tapping. I'm finding that I'm tending to sleep through this. I changed the settings in Sounds & Haptics to be Prominent rather than Default. That didn't make it any different. I have noticed that when I set just a timer on my Apple Watch, I get a strong vibration. How can I get that same vibration on my wake-up alarm? I was used to my FitBit Alta's alarm waking me, which this is not like that. Thanks!

it did a bit, but I still want to have the audible sound coming from my phone directly. Is there a way to do that?
