Sleep Alarm goes off on iPhone too

Hi, recently I have set up a sleep alarm on the health app on my phone, which is synced with my Apple Watch. I would like for only my Apple Watch to play this alarm, but unfortunately my phone goes off too which is too loud for me, and startles me when I wake up. Is there a way for only Apple Watch to play this sleep alarm, and have my phone not go off? Also, I would not like to use the Alarms app, as those alarms are much more startling than the ones built in the sleep app on my Apple Watch.

Thank you,

Nicco Caredda

Hello niccolo49,

It sounds like you have a Sleep Schedule set up with the associated alarm. However, your iPhone and Apple Watch go off when the alarm goes off. In this case, try to confirm these related steps:

Verify the Sleep Schedule and related settings: Track your sleep on Apple Watch and use Sleep on iPhone Making sure the alarm is set for the Sleep Schedule.
Then make sure the Apple Watch is being worn properly: Wearing your Apple Watch
After this, on your iPhone, go to the Clock app and tap on the Alarms tab. Make sure you do not have an alarm set up here for the same time as the Sleep Schedule. If so, remove or disable this alarm.
Test out the issue.

Should it persist, which watchOS and iOS versions are you using exactly? As some features may require you to be updated to functioning properly.

Hoping this helps out, take care.
