Wear OS devices - Sleep as Android

Sleep tracking with Wear OS device requires a companion app installed from the Play Store on the watch.


This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://docs.sleep.urbandroid.org/devices/wearos.html

Is it possible to dismiss an alarm on the watch? If so - how? I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch5.

@William_Shipley yes sure! On Wear OS 3+ Google added a concept of ongoing notifications, they are shown either on top or bottom of the screen… in case you are tracking there is a moving graph indicator, in case of an ongoing alarm there is a animated alarm clock… just tak that icon from the watchface and you will get to the control to eaither pause / stop tracking or dismiss and snooze alarms.

If you have some troubles accessing it from the ongoing indicator you can also add a Tile to access it…

Did that help?

Yes. Thanks. Very helpful.

@William_Shipley Did you find it, did it work well for you? Many thanks…

I found it. Thanks. I would have preferred a doze/dismiss popup on the watch when the alarm activates, but this works.

Not for me… but when I went to App settings on the watch, it gave me the option to allow notifications as well… that enabled the ongoing indicator on my halcyon
Galaxy watch 6

I have watch 7 but for some reason when though it says connected and ten seconds when I do test sensor it never seems to go anything or show a graph? Was really excited about the sp02 low oxygen alert features but starting to look like they won’t work?

Hi @Emily_Pierce, could you please use the Left ≡ menu → (?) Support → Report a bug, after 10-15 minutes of tracking started from the watch?

SpO2 data are not available on Galaxy Watches for 3rd party apps, so unless Samsung lifts this limit, we won’t be able to read the data.
