Battery saver reenables itself

This happens on both my fenix and instinct2.

my sleep schedule is set up as 0:00-10:00. I have sleep mode with dnd and saver on. Normally i wake up much earlier. upon waking i disable sleep mode.

now if i simply go into activity menu and out any time up to 10:00 the watch jumps back into battery saver mode. Seems like a bug?

I have the same problem for a year regardless of the software. Sometimes it also turns off the connection with the phone, or there is no data about stress from sleep

Hello. When you designate a scheduled sleep time, the watch treats this as the time you intend to be asleep. So even if you manually end sleep, if this is within your sleep schedule, it can still automatically reenter sleep after. This is because you have designated this as a time for the watch to be more vigilant in looking for your sleep behaviors.

So for example: If you manually end sleep, but then are relaxed and stationary, it will treat this as you falling asleep again. End sleep does not override this for the day.

However, if you End Sleep and then move around a lot, or record an activity, this will remain ended.

You can help mitigate some of this, be potentially reevaluating your sleep schedule to ensure this best matches your actual sleep habits.
