I have a Series 2 running watchOS 6 along with my iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 15b5. I suffer from some nuisance regarding Focus on iPhone which th watch doesn’t support of course.

What happens is once any Focus mode is activated in iPhone, the watch will set itself in full Do Not Disturb. So no notifications at all! For now I’ve been able to unmatch/unmarried watch and phone DND settings but now my watch is never in DND, not even during sleep :(. Reported this as FB9376779.(which Apple marked as not enough information…)

is anyone else suffering from the same issue? Any other tips?

Also, since I’m might upgrade the watch this year, could users running watchOS 8 beta report sheathed you can allow health(breathing) and stand up reminders while in a focus? Since the iPhone doesn’t have an app for this, how could you allow these apps in the Focus mode settings?
