Q: Is there a way to have the clock stay on while charging sideways on a nightstand?
I would like to have the clock stay illuminated while charging on its side while I sleep. Is this possible?

Hi
Whilst there is currently no option to keep the display on within Nightstand Mode (because Apple has not provided this option), to see the time, it is only necessary to tap the display or lightly nudge your watch. By design, even nudging or tapping the bedside table may enough to trigger the display when your watch is in Nightstand Mode.
If you have set an alarm on your watch, the screen will also brighten before the alarm begins.
Use Nightstand mode on your Apple Watch - Apple Support
If you would like to suggest that Apple considers adding an option for the display to remain on permanently when the watch is in Nightstand mode, you can do so here (all submissions are read, but you should not expect to receive a reply):
