I have two watches, and I use one of them to track sleep. For a long time this worked perfectly, but now the watch app turns on sleep tracking for both watches when I try to turn it on for the one I want to use only. Then that "wrong" watch starts ringing alarms at the wrong time of the morning.
How can I go back to just using ONE watch for sleep? I have tried a full reset of the watch.

OK--resolved. And I have to confess my own embarrassment.
When attempting to resolve this, I was attempting to turn off sleep tracking for a specific watch using iPhone\watch\[watchName]\Sleep\Track Sleep with Apple Watch toggle. That is not how you turn off sleep tracking for a specific watch. On the screen--lower down, so you have to scroll--is Don't Use This Watch for Sleep.
Clearly, that is what you told me to use back on March 3.
Now in a weak attempt to defend myself, it's not clear to me what the first toggle does that's different than the second option. But I don't care that much, it's working again. Thanks for your help, Ingo2711.

Did you try to disable "Mirror my iPhone" in All Watches/Your non Sleep Tracking watch/My Watch/Settings/General/Focus?
If you select All Watches/Your non Sleep Tracking watch/My Watch/Settings/Sleep/Don't use this watch for Sleep, does it also turn off the Sleep Tracking on the other watch?
Open the WatchApp on your iPhone, choose the watch that you don't want to record sleep in "My Watch", then go to Sleep-> scroll down the screen and tap on -> Don't Use This Watch fo Sleep
Are you sharing your Focus mode across your devices?
Check on your iPhone -> Settings -> Focus -> Share Across Devices
Did you try to delete the Sleep Schedule on your iPhone and create a new one, which is then also shared between your devices?
On your watches in Settings/Focus, Mirror my iPhone is enabled?
Do you have a Sleep Schedule set up, which starts automatically?
Here's an example of the problem:
last night I realized I didn't need to wake up as early as normal, so I changed my wake-up time (next wake-up only) to my new wake-up time. I was wearing the watch I want to use for sleep tracking at the time. This morning, my OTHER watch alarm went off at the NORMAL time, waking me up early--and the night-time watch alarm went off at the scheduled time.
Well, it's still not working the way it used to. If I enable sleep tracking for one watch, it's enabled for both. If I disable one, it disables both. At least the alarms go off at the same time, but it's silly to have two alarms ringing when I only WANT to track sleep on ONE watch.
Whatever setting I choose on that screen is applied to both watches.
Yes and it worked great for a long time.
Yes (and thanks for trying to help me on this)
Working on this--I've deleted the schedule and will reactivate it when I've switched to my evening watch. Thanks!
You're welcome , Good Luck! 🙂
Glad it finally worked 🙂
How can I use my one Apple Watch for sleep tracking?
