How do I stop incoming message notifications interrupting a phone call

I appreciate this issue has been posted many times in the past, but it appears Apple have not addressed it with subsequent OS updates:
When I'm speaking to someone on the phone an incoming message notification sound interrupts the conversation and I can't hear them. I can't find a way of turning off sounds whilst in a call?
Please don't suggest I: turn on airplane mode, turn on do not disturb, put the phone on mute etc. etc, these are modern times and these solutions should not even be considered.
Please help if you can.

I COMPLETELY get where you are coming from.  I don't understand why there is not a function in settings that is an on/off switch labelled, "mute when phone is in call".  seems pretty basic.  I can't remember how many times i have had to ask someone repeat what they just said due to getting a notification for either another text message, or an email, or any number of audible notifications I have gotten while in a call with someone.  I then have to reach up and manually switch my iphone to mute, which I notoriously forget to switch back on after the call is over.  I feel you man, totally.

    How do I stop automatic email notifications?
    I had thought that I was subscribing to just a single thread but it appears that I'm now being notified about every message in every thread.  The last time I logged on I received over 200 messages.
    If it doesn't stop I will have to resort to changing my email address.

  • How do I stop the message "user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2 times in a row when i try to get mail from other accounts? thank you in advance

    How do I stop the message "Cannot get mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2-4 times consecutively every time I choose MAIL on my iPhone 4,  7.1.1  I have to select "OK" 2-4 times each time before I can read other email accounts.  I used to have an "@me.com" account which I think was automatically changed to an "@icloud.com account."  I opened a new iCloud.com account yesterday because I could not figure out how to get in the old ones.  I want to delete the original @me & original iCloud account.  When I try to delete the account, they tell me my DOB is wrong. I just want those pop ups to stop.  Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Suzanne,
    It sounds like you’re running into a password issue with an older Apple ID that’s setup on your iPhone, which is preventing you from removing an iCloud account from your device. Take a look at the article linked below, it outlines all of the possible ways to change an Apple ID password.
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    After you enter your Apple ID, there are three ways you can change your password:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    So long,
    -Jason

  • HT1495 How do I stop SMS messages being shared between multiple iphones on my itunes account? One is my wife's, one is mine and we do not want each others messages appearing on the other.

    How do I stop SMS messages appearing on two devices on my iTunes account?
    One phone is mine, one is my wife's and we dont want messages being shared.
    We do have contacts and music etc shared.

    If your are recieving mixed information on your phone on multiple devices this is going to be related to iMessage.
    On your phone navagate to settings > messages > send and receive.
    Check the information in that section make sure it relates to your AppleID and your phone.  If you share a AppleID with the individual create a new AppleID for their device and insert that information.
    If the numbers don't remove turn of iMessage restart your phone and turn it back it.
    If all else fails disable iMessage otherwise turning it off is the quickest fix.

    Notifications ...  how do I stop getting email notifications?  I like this site but now I get 20-50 or more notifications a day in my email.  I would rather shut that off and check back on my own now....  

    Once you've turned off notifications, you won't get new ones. But you still have to cancel the notifications you've been receiving. This thread explains how at the top: https://discussions.apple.com/static/apple/tutorial/email.html

    Mike,
    Thank you for taking the time to look at my app. This is my last major stumbling block that I have to resolve for this and other forms in the app.
    Actually, I did use the Form Wizard for Auto DML to originally create the form. It was great. It created most of the Buttons, Items and Validations automatically (basically most of the page). I just needed to create some Processes and Computations. Two of which were the Processes to update the 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields and 'update_dt' and 'updated_by' fields. The Create process updates the fields just fine.
    However, my problem seems to be that the Hidden 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields aren't picking up the values from a record that is being editted. Then when I attempt to save the record those fields are NULL, causing the DB NOT NULL constraint to throw an exception for those fields. In the back of my mind I seem to remember seeing some post stating something to the effect that the information in fields with a Source Type of Database Column is just displayed and does not affect Session State items.
    Even with that, I am still wondering just why the 'created_by' Page Item shows the value that is in the DB record being updated, but the 'create_dt" does not (as can be seen in my first posting). It is the 'create_dt' Page Item (:P205_CREATE_DT) not having the DB records 'create_dt' info in it that appears to be the problem.
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • I have checked around the internet, but still can't find any answers. How can I prevent incoming mail from interrupting the music I am listening to on my iPhone? That 1-second muting function drives me insane, especially when a lot of mail is coming in.

    If you want to hear your music on iPhone without interruption, switch Settings > Airplane Mode: ON.

  • Just brought my daughter an iphone and have her setup on my ID. Want to be able to see her messages and photos but dont want my info to appear on her phone. How do i stop the messages from appearing on her phone? (5's)

    Just brought my daughter an iphone and have her setup on my ID. Want to be able to see her messages and photos but dont want my info to appear on her phone. How do i stop the messages from appearing on her phone?

    If you have set up photo stream, this can't be done. As soon as you switch off photo stream on her device to keep your photos from coming to her device, you won't get any as well from her. Same for messages, you can't have both, sorry.
    Maybe look into the family sharing feature if you want the photos to be shared:
