Sometimes it’ll play a chime, display a message saying it seems you’re awake, and give you the option to turn off sleep focus. But it’s not reliable.
I’ve given up completely on the sleep schedule. I have a decent real-world schedule, generally in and out of bed plus / minus half an hour the same time every day — but it’s not to-the-minute repeatable, and the sleep schedule (for whatever idiotic reason) makes that assumption in so many different ways.
So what I do is, when I turn out the lights, I turn on sleep focus; when I get out of bed, I turn it off. If I use the watch for an alarm, it’s the regular alarm, not the sleep-connected version.
I know the sleep schedule thing should “just work.” But it doesn’t, and manually turning the sleep focus on and off is waaaaaay less hassle than dealing with the sleep schedule. Heck, turning the focus on and off is easier than turning the lights on and off; the watch is on your switch, so no need to get up (or even reach).
