Turn on haptics on apple watch for ONLY alarms/timers?

I find haptic alerts to be distracting most of the time, but they’re great for alarms when I don’t want to wake my partner. Is there a way to turn off haptic alerts for all notifications except alarms?

Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 8

How can I turn off all haptics except the alarm When I am working nightshifts I sleep during the day with earplugs in, so I cannot hear alarms. I want to be woken by the haptic alarm, but I don't want to be woken by notifications. I'm sure many people want to sleep undisturbed by notifications and to be woken by their haptic alarm while not waking their partner with an audible alarm. The people who designed Do not Disturb do not appear to be aware that 25% of the population work nightshifts. I do not want to reprogram the watch every 7 days. It is possible to turn off all sounds except for alarms, so it would be reasonable to presume that Apple has made a simple way to turn off all haptics except for alarms, but I cannot find how to do so. Please help

Disable persistent Apple Watch low battery notification When my Apple Watch displays a low battery alert, it stays on the screen until I dismiss it. Is there a way to make the alert dismiss itself? All of my other notifications eventually go away and the watch returns to the watch face

Hey brennac909,

Haptic alerts on your Apple Watch can be either on or off. This would be great feedback to provide to Apple though. Just use this link to leave any suggestions: Product Feedback - Apple

Take care.
