Greetings annieb2123,


To keep your Apple Watch screen turned off while you’re sleeping, we recommend using Theater mode: Use Control Center on Apple Watch - Apple Support

Theater mode prevents the Apple Watch display from turning on when you raise your wrist, so it stays dark. It also turns on silent mode and makes your Walkie-Talkie status unavailable, but you still receive haptic notifications.


Use Focus on Apple Watch - Apple Support -- You can also use the Do Not Disturb Focus to keep the screen from lighting up while you sleep.


Status icons and symbols on Apple Watch - Apple Support -- When you wake in the morning, the status icon at the top will remind you to turn either of those off.


Feel free to get back to us with any questions or problems you may have.


All the best.
