Apple should add a setting to set apple watch always on feature OFF during the night

If you put your wrist in front of the wifes eyes in the bed at night watch can be 5-10cm from her eyes and it is too bright. That was the reason I had to turn it off, minimum brightness was not dark enough.

That's is why I'm suggesting you enable sleep tracking. It will stop that from happening while you're waiting to see if Apple will make the change you want.

Then submit your feedback to Apple. My guess is that what you want is unlikely as Apple already provides a way to darken the screen and, Apple being Apple, they have decided how it should be done. But, you never know.

You also might consider using the sleep tracking. Once it's set, it's automatic and you don't ever have to look at the data if you don't want to. I admit, I mostly use it for the do not disturb and alarm aspects.

No, I don't have this issue at all. If you use the Sleep Tracking function, the screen goes dark.

But, you can also let Apple know your thoughts here:

I think sleep tracking was on but still watch is not totally dark during the night,

Then something is not set up right. The reason I'm so sure about this is because it mildly annoys me that I can't see the time on my watch if I wake up in the middle of the night. Fortunately, Siri on my phone to the rescue.

I'm sorry I don't have any additional ideas as to why your Watch doesn't do what I think it's supposed to do.
