TL;DR<\/p>\n

Pixel Watch models currently offer an auto-bedtime mode.
\nTimes are synced from your phone, and the smartwatch automatically follows along.
\nGoogle appears to be working on a new \u201csnooze\u201d feature that would let you delay the transition.<\/p>\n

When you\u2019re looking for some peace and quiet, it only takes one device to ruin the silence. That\u2019s exactly why we appreciate that our Pixel Watch<\/a> smartwatches support auto-bedtime mode<\/a>, syncing our settings from phones and automatically engaging on our wrists. But schedules change, and some days you\u2019re going to need to burn the midnight oil. When that happens, your Pixel Watch may soon offer a nice little tweak to auto-bedtime that instead lets you keep the party going.<\/p>\n

Right now, your Pixel Watch offers two toggles: one for auto-bedtime start, and one for when it ends. And the actual times assigned to those transitions are pulled from your phone. Looking through a recent release of Google\u2019s Pixel Watch Management Service app, we\u2019ve spotted a few fresh text strings that could hint at some new functionality here:<\/p>\n

Code<\/p>\n

Copy TextBedtime at %1$s
\nDelay until I fall asleep
\nBedtime
\nDelay bedtime?<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t get any sort of notifications like that currently when still using our Pixel Watch at the time when bedtime mode is set to engage \u2014 it just turns on without further interaction.<\/p>\n

But based on this, it sounds like Google is considering a new \u201csnooze\u201d option that would let users choose to keep their smartwatch active and responding to notifications.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s possible that Google\u2019s \u201cuntil I fall asleep\u201d language here could suggest that the snoozing isn\u2019t just happening on a set time delay, but could perhaps respond to device sensors until it detects you\u2019ve actually dozed off.<\/p>\n

As far as we can tell, this isn\u2019t yet live on Pixel Watch models \u2014 in our testing today, bedtime mode still automatically engaged like normal. But for all we know, Google could start testing this with the public anytime it wants to. We\u2019ll be on the lookout for any reports of seeing it in action.<\/p>\n

\u26a0\ufe0f An APK teardown helps predict features that may arrive on a service in the future based on work-in-progress code. However, it is possible that such predicted features may not make it to a public release.<\/p>\n
