Error "Unavailable - Sleep apnea notifications are not available on your Apple Watch"

Hi,

I just upgraded my Ultra 2 to Watch OS 11 any my Iphone 15 pro to IOS 18. When trying to turn on sleep apnea notifications, it says "unvailable - sleep apnea notifications are not available on your apple watch".


The hardware should be capable, so where is my mistake?


Best regards,

Sascha

Have a 16 pro max and upgraded from the series 2 watch to the ultra2 and get the same error. Deleted all health devices, old watch is no longer paired and reset the watch from scratch and still have the issue.

i’ve tried all these steps but no luck. have an iphone 13 pro max and a new apple watch 10 with latest ios and eatchiS installed.


unpaired and set up as a new watch as well as restored from a backup. also powered it off and back on as another suggested but still says the feature is not available on my watch. so frustrating since i got this mainly for that feature.

I, too, am told by the health app that sleep apnea notifications are unavailable on my new Apple Watch 10. I rebooted the watch and my phone, to no avail. I set up my watch from scratch. I verified that sleep tracking is enabled on my watch. Still unavailable.


No luck from online searches, ChatGPT, or Grok (although they did give good advice on prerequisites to check). I'm out of ideas.
