Since the WatchOS 10 update, the sleep mode focus no longer disables the touch screen and turn off the display when covering it with the palm. In the past, used to be able to interact with the watch by long pressing the crown. This is to avoid accidentally turning off the alarm/timers while sleeping. How do I re-enable that crown long press?
Apple Watch Series 7
I think this is now a bug with WatchOS 10.1. The sleep app is still on my watch and my settings have not changed, but my watch face does not ‘dim’ when I am within my sleep hours. The watch screen is same as day settings. The only change I have made since the problem arose is updating to the new WatchOS
Yeah mine is still enabled in fact just restored my phone and re paired watch and then it started doing that. I re paired it because it kept sending me alerts even when in a focus that it was supposed to be silent. Now the screen never shuts off unless I use theater mode. Sigh
I just saw that sleep tracking was not active anymore on my devices. After I turned on sleep tracking with apple watch (in the health app; sleep section), the sleep screen was back. 😍
I updated my Apple Watch and now I usually when I go to bed I push the red button to turn it off so it the phone doesn’t wake me up but I can’t seem to do that now why?
Hi SkyHighPerch,
Thanks for getting back to us. We're glad to hear you were able to get that resolved.
Have a great rest of your day!
Same here! And at 3 in the f****ing morning it’s driving me nuts!
Since the update I can’t turn my face of my watch when I go to sleep.

Sleep Mode in WatchOS 10 doesn't disable touch screen and turn off display...
