Bedtime changes

[ghostface147]

I work a rotating schedule due to COVID, so one week I am at home Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and the next week Tues and Thursday. I'd set my bedtime alarm to wake me up at 6:20 am on the days I work at the office. I'd manually change it each week but pushing the dates it was supposed to be active. In iOS 14, I don't see an equivalent. It just runs the alarm everyday. Is that specific feature gone?

Can’t do that using the new Bedtime icon in iOS 14, at least not that I have found. The best you can do is manually change the wake time for the next day, which keeps the original wake time for the week intact.

What you will have to do is manually create an alarm for each day needed with the option to repeat every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc.

Not sure if it's the same, but if you go into the Health App and click on Sleep, you can set schedules for different days

I'll definitely check that out thanks.

OTOH, proper sleep hygiene would have you waking up around the same time every day whether you work that day or not. I know this is not what you are asking, just a friendly reminder.

The American academy of sleep medicine recommends no more than 1 hour of either advance or delay in the sleep phase.

I generally wake up the same time anyways, alarm or not. Maybe 10-15 minutes later without the alarm.
