My Apple Watch is showing an orange dot at the centre of the screen at the top. It's not the microphone icon or red unread message icon. it looks like it matches have clock hands inside the icon but no timers or alarms are running. Anyone happen to know what it is? It's recently appeared.
The only recent app I installed I deleted and restarted the watch but the orange dot is still there.
Apple Watch Series 10, watchOS 26
I just deleted all the switched off alarms and it has now gone away. Thanks for your help.
have you tried to click on it?
because it looks like the alarm icon

It seems to go into the alarm settings but no alarms are set.
What is the unknown orange dot on Apple Watch?
