People with multiple Apple Watches for testing or sleep or whatever:

How do you reliably prevent the “other” one (at a given time) from sounding your daily wake-up alarm from your iPhone?

This “Push Alerts from iPhone” setting in Watch -> Clock is off for both watches, but sometimes, the “other” watch sounds the alarm anyway.

This looks like the answer!

Watch -> Sleep -> Don’t use this Watch for Sleep

Thanks, @captainslim !

Attached: 1 image @[email protected] I have two watches, one of which I wear to sleep. I select Don’t use this Watch for Sleep in Sleep settings in the Watch app on the non-sleep one.

@marcoarment @captainslim been looking for this answer for ages. Wasn’t obvious to me that disabling sleep tracking would disable the alarms—thanks!!

@sbradp @marcoarment @captainslim in my experience, it didn’t solve it. The alarm on the other watch goes off, and will keep sounding until the battery runs out, even if cancelled on the watch you’re wearing.

@drgrowmac Well shucks. I disabled it on my non-sleep watch, anyway, and will see how it goes.

@sbradp @marcoarment @captainslim I must have done something wrong, worked perfectly this morning! Happy days.
