Do Not Disturb and Notifications
Push notifications appear in Notification Center and alert you to new information, even when the
associated app isn’t running. Notifications vary by app, but may include text or sound alerts, and
a numbered badge on the app icon on the Home screen.
Turn off all notifications: Go to Settings and turn on Do Not Disturb. When it’s turned on and
iPhone is locked, all notifications and calls are silenced, but alarms will still sound. You can set the
following options in Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb:
• Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb: Set the starting and ending hours for when you don’t
want to be disturbed. iPhone turns on Do Not Disturb during these hours each day.
• Allow some phone calls during Do Not Disturb: When Do Not Disturb is on, calls are silently sent
to voice mail. To allow some callers to ring through, tap Allow Calls From. You can allow calls
from your Favorites list or other Contacts groups you define. For information about Favorites,
see Chapter 25, Contacts, on page 100.
• Allow persistant callers to ring through: Turn on Repeated Calls. If the same caller (based on
their Caller ID) calls you twice within three minutes, iPhone will ring.
Turn an app’s notifications on or off: Go to Settings > Notifications. Tap an item in the list, then
turn notifications on or off for that item. Apps that have notifications turned off appear in the Not in Notification centre

  • Why does my iPhone ring with the 'do not disturb' button on?

           When I put the 'do not disturb' button to 'on' today, and my husband called me, the phone rang.
           Does it let 'favorites' through?
           Or is this function just not working?
           Thanks,
           Snark

           Thank you, Stedman!!
          I hope ya'll don't mind these dumb-*** questions; I really appreciate the help.
          I was browsing discussions around in here the other day, and saw that *some* replies were in the line of, 'read your manual you idiot,' but a whole lot nastier.
          If anyone gives me a reply like that, I will surely cry and melt down into a lump of humiliated goo.
           So if I'm being too ignorant here, please tell me? I spend all my time in school online right now, really don't have time to investigate other things...
           I don't want to be a pest!!
          Thanks

  • Does anybody know how the "Do not disturb" button on iOS 6 will work?

    I understand you will still be receiving calls, messages, etc and your iPhone will remain silent and you will be able to see your messages later, but if I set the DND timer for an especific time like everyday at 10pm, will it activate next day at 10 pm like the night before or do I have to set the timer again? thanks in advance.

    Turn on Do Not Disturb to suppress all incoming calls and notifications. Enable it manually or schedule a recurring time. Or allow calls from your favorites or specific contact groups.

  • HT5463 I cannot switch off the Do not disturb function.

    I turned on the 'do not disturb '  and now the toggle switch will not slide to the off position. I allowed calls from 'everyone' but text alerts do not work. The moon icon is showing. How do I turn it off. I would have thought the switch was for doing that!

    First of all,
    Do a reset..it solves most of these kind of issues..
    In ur home screen , double tap the homebutton and delete all the apps in multi tasking and then hold ur power button and homebutton simultaneously for about ten seconds or so until you see an apple logo.  do not worry ..you will not loose any data...
    After you have done it..try and operate the "do not disturb button".
    If it is still not working then it might propably be because of some software glitch.....i recomend that you update ur mobile to the latest firmware 6.1.3..since it solves many small issues like these..

  • How Secure is my iPhone/  provide automatic re-enable of a phone that has set do not disturb.

    There are many articles about how smart phones can be hacked to do things not desired.  One I saw discussed recently is that a Smart Phone when turned on
    can be send codes to put it in eavesdropping mode where the phone is asking as a transmitter of what is said near it to a phone connection opened by the codes
    sent to turn it on.
    One workaround suggested in some discussions was to require everyone to remove the battery from their phone so there is no power for eavesdropping.  Obviously this won't work on an iPhone since the batteries are not removable.  Does the phone provide protection from having eavesdropping instructions from being sent to it?  Is there a way to temporarily disable the phone so it won't respond to such attempts?  If the phone is fully shut down (hold the button down until the turn off option appears and you slide the slide bar to turn it off.  Will it still respond to signals sent to it via the telephone connection or blue tooth link?  Is there a simple way to turn off that capability which allows the user to turn it back on easily when in possession of the phone?
    There is a feature to disable receiving calls or messages during a period selected in settings where you give the start and stop of the do not disturb function.
    However, I find Do Not Disturb sadly lacking.  If I go into  meeting for theater and am asked to silence my phone Do Not Disturb seems perfect for that need.  However the next morning when my coworkers ask why my phone is disabled, I have to admit I forgot to turn it back on.  What I really need is an option from the easy settings to disable no longer than 2 hours (length of the meeting, concern, movie, dinner party, etc.  then I do not need to remember to turn it back on.
    If I set the start and stop time for the do not disturb option for now, if I don't remember to clear it, mu phone will re-enable at the right time but the next day it will go "dark" for the same interval even if I am free.  Was this feature ever tested using real people doing real life situations?  I found holes in the design and easy ways Apple could fix them.  But they keep ignoring my suggestions.
    It seems if a feature idea did not come from the design team, the design team does not deign to read and evaluated decent ideas from customers.  I have talked with a number of long term iPhone users who would like such a feature.  I don't know if the competition is doing anything like it.

    This is a user-to-user support forum. A good place for suggestions to Apple is https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • My phone is not coming out from (do not disturb mode) in the scheduled off time eg in the morning?

    scheduled do not disturb ,then it does not come back to normal in the morning and stays in the do not disturb mode till i change it manually

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again.
    You will not lose data by resetting.

  • Incoming Phone Call DND (Do Not Disturb) or ability to send call to voicema

    Does anyone know a good way to put a DND (do not disturb) on incoming phone calls? The idea is to send calls directly to voice mail while still leaving the phone on to receive email & text messages. While at work or in meetings, it would be nice to not be bothered by calls especially from specific people. Ideally it would be really nice to one or all of the following:
    -Function to send all calls to voice mail without ringing
    -An option when an incoming call is coming in to send the person to voicemail with the choice of a prerecorded message such as "In a meeting" or "At work" etc.
    -Send specific people to voice mail without ringing, possibly with a prechosen message.

    The only option for the iPhone not ringing when a call is received and the same when a text message is received while in a meeting is by turning the silent switch on located above the volume buttons.

  • After the most recent iOS update, notification center doesn't show messages from people who are on "do not disturb mode". Anyone know how to fix it?

    Originally, even if I had some messages on the "do not disturb" mode, I would still be able to preview them in the notification center. After the latest update about a week or so ago, the only messages that appear are the ones that aren't on "do not disturb". I've tried taking them all off the DND mode and turning it back on, messed with the settings, even turned my phone off and on, but nothing is working.
    Any ideas?

    Follow-up to my earlier post that iPhone 6 Bluetooth not working correctly.  I purchased a Jawbone MiniJambox to use as a speaker phone in my office.  Everyone in our company thinks they are the best.  However, it is experiencing the same issues as with all my other Bluetooth headsets.  Everything works except cannot answer or hang up calls pushing the buttons on the Bluetooth devices.  The Bluetooth patio speakers in our courtyard also have the same issue.  However, my colleagues using iPhone 5 and 5s who did not update to iOS8 are using all Bluetooth devices without any issues.  Apple says it is a problem with my Bluetooth device.  Come on Apple.... This makes 7 different Bluetooth devices with different manufacturers.  You cannot possibly believe the problem is with the Bluetooth devices when iOS7 works perfectly fine...
    On another issue, my iPhone 5s worked perfectly fine in my vehicle entertainment center connected via USB.  The vehicle entertainment center had complete control of my iPhone and iTunes.  However, now I plug in my new iPhone 6 and it no longer communicates with my vehicle entertainment center.  Again when I called Apple, they said my vehicle entertainment center needed a firmware update.  Are you kidding me...  That is a bunch of BS...!!!

  • Can't find the 'Do Not Disturb"

    I cannot find the 'Do Not Disturb' manual button in my Notification Center. I've reset the mac and fiddled a little with the Notification Center settings, but no luck. Any suggestions?

    There isn't a visible scroll bar. On your trackpad just move the cursor into the Notification Center and then use 2 fingers to pull down.

  • Viber and do not disturb feature

    iPhone 4s with IOS 6
    The new Do not Disturb feature.
    It will not ring (no sound) when the New Do not disturb feature on the iphone is turned on.Which I know is what it's supposed to do,but  even if you allow the contact to pass through(allow favorites,all groups,etc.) and are outside of the blocked time perimeters. You do get the badge icon in the lock screen when a call comes in,but only after touching the home button to start the wake. Then you see there is an incoming call. You'll have to be psychic and predict the incoming call. It does sound when a viber call comes in if the phone is awake.
    PS. crazy battery drainage
    I was going through the settings to make sure all the right features were in place and watched the battery % drop very quickly in only about a 10-15 minute period. Wow IOS 5 flash back, but this seems worse. Yikes!
