Two days ago, the crescent moon icon for the sleep setting now shows focus options. Can I get the simple sleep option back?

Thank you, but when I tap Focus in the control centre, there is no 'sleep' option. Only On/on for 1 hour/on until this evening/on until I leave.

I don't know where to find a Lock Screen Sleep indicator.

The sleep scheduling is turned off, including on my iPhone.

Thanks for any further tips you know!
