Sleep not tracking watchOS 9.1

Since updating to watchOS 9.1 my watch has not recorded and sleep data.


I trigger sleep focus through shortcuts and this has worked for the last year every night without fail. Since updating to 9.1 sleep data is not being added to health.


tried manually setting the sleep focus too and still no joy.


Is there a known issue? And is there a fix or do we just need to wait for the next update?

Hi Randlet,


The site Track your sleep on Apple Watch and use Sleep on iPhone offers the following information which may help:


"Get more accurate results with your Apple Watch

If you paired your Apple Watch after completing Sleep setup, you can still turn on Track Sleep with Apple Watch. In the Watch app on your iPhone, tap the My Watch tab, then tap Sleep. Then tap Track Sleep with Apple Watch to turn on this setting. To get the most accurate results when wearing your watch to sleep:

  • Turn on Charging Reminders. On your iPhone, open the Watch app and tap the My Watch tab, then tap Sleep. Tap Charging Reminders to turn on a reminder on your Apple Watch to charge before your Wind Down time. If your watch battery dies, it won't track your sleep data.
  • Make sure that you're wearing your Apple Watch at a comfortable fit. If your watch is too loose, the accelerometer might register too much movement during your natural sleep."


If you continue to experience problems with this information recording after verifying the function is configured, use Apple Support to investigate further with AppleCare Support.


Regards.
