Do you have to set a Sleep schedule to have an sleep focus option?

[SoYoung]

I used to just have a regular DND schedule for when I sleep, but now since iOS 15, I don't see a sleep focus option. I want it because I like to have the weather on lock screen when I wake up and its no longer show on iOS 15 on regular DND. Do I have to set up a whole sleep mode schedule in the health app to have this option? Because there's no sleep focus option when I try to create a new one.

You should be able to choose weather app as allowed app during the said focus mode, so the app might work. But I haven’t dug into that much.

I have a sleep focus mode I use every night with no sleep schedule.

Just press the bed icon whenever you go to sleep, I have a schedule in sleep with my Apple Watch, but sometimes i go early, sometimes later. So I disabled it, and just press the bed icon .
