Recently got a flip and still trying to understand some aspects of the software after switching from iPhone.

I have the galaxy watch 7 that I use with my z flip 6. For sleep mode, I've specified a schedule. Can you tell me if this will use my watch to track?

I previously had the sleeping condition on but I didn't realise this would stop my alarm on my schedule from going off. What is the sleeping condition and why would it be used?

Can anyone help or direct me to an official user guide?

@ChrisX1: Sleep Mode won't use your Galaxy Watch7, as the mode is activated/deactivated based on the schedules that you apply, or if you turn it on manually.

Think of the Sleeping condition as an alternative to setting an alarm via the clock app, as you can use it to assign your sleep time, and set up a Wake-up alarm to sound at the end of the sleep time period.

Thanks for getting back to me. I'm still confused is there no guide on this? I have a sleep schedule set and wear my watch while sleeping mad my watch appears to track my sleep during this time. One random thing that I can work out is when in sleep mode, the watch display changes and says I have an alarm set for a different time than the alarm is set for. So strange

@ChrisX1: Your Watch7 tracks your sleep patterns when the feature is enabled, however this is not connected to Sleep Mode on your phone. Sleep mode is designed to help you wind down, and avoid disturbances or distractions so you're able to sleep better, and achieves this by enabling Do not disturb and applying Greyscale to your display to reduce blue light exposure. 

If your Watch is displaying a different alarm time to the one you have enabled in the Sleep Mode settings, then I recommend checking the Alarm app on the Watch itself, and disabling any alarms that you may have set up here. Similarly, check the Clock app > Alarms on your connected phone, and remove any conflicting alarms from here (press and hold on the alarm > Delete (or Delete all)).
