I’m wanting an alternative to an audible alarm in a morning so I don’t wake the missus up as I’m up a good 90 minutes before her.

Do all smartwatches vibrate with an alarm or only certain ones? Do they work with my phone switched off??

Cheers.

I don’t think anyone can possibly answer for “all smartwatches”. All I can say is an Apple Watch will

I appreciate that. Just after a bit of guidance as I don’t generally wear a watch so don’t really need to spend a load on one.

My Garmin Fenix 6 Pro has the option of vibrate, beep or vibrate & beep. It's independent of the phone.

I’ve not had one for a few years but it think a reasonably basic FitBit would do the alarm if you don’t need any of the more advanced smart watch features

Thanks. I just need it to tie up with an iPhone 13. The Fitbit should do the job.
