Adaptable Smart Watch Alarm

My Current Samsung Galaxy Watch tracks my Sleep timing with fair amount. It displays the time when I fall asleep and when I woke up. Based on these timing, it displays hours of sleep along with Deep sleep, Light sleep, etc. parameters and overall sleep score in Samsung Health App.

I have set Morning Wakeup Alarm on my Smart Watch. Watch vibrates and plays Alarm tone at the set time. After 1-2 snooze I usually wakeup. After I get up and start moving, Watch identifies this as Wakeup time.

So far Watch is doing its job perfectly about tracking sleep and waking me at set time. But I am wondering if it could have feature by which it will only wake me after I get sleep of certain hours, like 7 or 8 hours from the time I fall asleep. It would be like Adaptable Alarm which set automatically after it detects I am sleeping. So, if I set to wake me up after 7 hours, and Watch detects that I slept at 11:00 PM, then should set Alarm for 6:00 AM. Similarly, if it detects I slept at 11:30 PM, then Alarm would be set for 06:30 AM.

I hope Apple, Samsung, Fitbit, and other Wearable device makers are working on this feature.
