Can I get a full moon alert?

Add the next full moon date to your calendar with a reminder.

Does Android have something similar?

Some weather apps show it; this page works in any browser.

Why is the phase on my Watch slightly different?

Apps round the illumination differently; the phase name is the same.

Moon Phases on iPhone and Apple Watch

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): On iPhone with iOS 17 or later, open the Weather app and scroll to the Moon section: it shows today's phase, how much is lit, moonrise and moonset and the next full moon, and you can browse a calendar. The Lock Screen's Astronomy wallpaper shows the Moon too. On Apple Watch, choose the Astronomy face and switch it to the Moon, or the Lunar face, or add a Moon Phase complication to faces such as Modular or Infograph. This page also works in Safari, and you can add it to the Home Screen.
