Apple Watch keeps alerting me to time to stand in the middle of the night

Apple Watch is set to sleep mode. Keeps asking me time to stand in the middle of the night. I still wanna keep track of my hours slept.

Sorry for being unclear, have a look at where to find these settings:


Open Watch App on your iPhone, tap on "My Watch" in the bottom menu, then choose "Activity" and disable "Stand Reminders"




And, after your watch finished the Sleep Mode, enable the reminder again, if needed.

I have disabled the reminder permanently, and check the stand count on my watch or Fitness app, if necessary.

The problem is, that you can only exclude the Fitness or the Health app, from sending you notifications during Sleep Focus-> Apps-> Silence Notifications From -> add app.


"Activity" is not listed, the Fitness app only reflects your Stand result, and you might have to disable all notifications from the Health app completely during sleep, just to stop the Stand Reminder.
