Apple Watch Ultra "Do Not Disturb" turning itself off?

I have DND set up on iPhone and mirror it with my new Apple Watch Ultra - when I go to bed I set it to on and I shouldn't get any notifications until 09.00 BUT I am getting texts / emails and its waking me up as I have it on my wrist for "sleep" app!! Its not happening on my phone - please advise!

Hello MarkSchultz,


Have you checked that "Mirror my iPhone" is enabled for Focus? Here's how:

1. On iPhone, go to the Apple Watch app

2. My Watch tab

3. Tap on General

4. Then Focus

5. Verify Mirror my iPhone is enabled.


You should be able to see the Do Not Disturb active on your Apple Watch, as shown here:

Use Control Center on your Apple Watch - Apple Support


We hope this helps.
