HT5463 Do Not Disturb feature not working?

I have upgraded to iPhone 5 but no matter what I do with the settings on the Do Not Disturb calls still come through.  Is this a desigb

You have not adequatly described what is wrong. Pleas define "not working".
DND only takes effect when the phone is in standby. It will ONLY allow calls through from those in the group that you have designated. It will not permit any other notifications through, including text messages, imessages, etc. even if the sender is in the allowed calls list.
The built in alarm will always sound if set.

  • HT5463 Questions about the "Do Not Disturb" feature not addressed in documentation

    Hello,
    I have some questions about the "Do Not Disturb" feature which are not quite addressed by the documentation.
    When DND is enabled, will badge app icons still be displayed?
    When DND is turned off, either manually or automatically, will Notification Center banners be available for alerts which occurred while DND was on, or are they lost forever? 
    I guess the main questions is, is DND like an answering machine, which stores up your notifications until you are ready to deal with them?  Or is it a return of the "turn off all notifications" feature that existed in iOS 4, albeit in a more evolved form?
    Thanks,
    - Steve

    If you have a schedule set, but activate it manually, it will de-activate at the scheduled time anyway. It behaves perfectly on my 4S, my wife's 4, and both of our iPads.
    If you have an iPhone 5, it could be tied to the known issue with automatic time set going Wonky on LTE networks. If that's the case, try disabling the automatic time set and see if it behaves itself.

  • "Do not Disturb" feature is not working with iOS6 update in iPhone4

    I have updated iOS6 on my iphone 4. I tried to turn on "Do not Disturb" feature, schedule time then test it but it is not working. Phone is ringing with vibrate & tone. kindly fix this bug.

    When I first tested the Do Not Disturb function, I discovered two ways it could seem like it was not working. One, as mentioned above, was that my screen was not locked. The other was the settings under Settings/Notifications/Do Not Disturb. If your settings allow calls from favorites and then you try to test the feature from a phone in your favorites list, it will not block the call. Similarly, if you are testing multiple times and the allow repeated call option is set, the call will also get through.
    And one other observation. All of the material I have seen describes the action of the Do Not Disturb function as silencing the notifications. For incoming calls it does more than that; it actually rejects the call so the caller goes straight to voicemail rather than just ringing silently.

  • TS4510 When will the "do not disturb" feature work properly?

    I want to know if there is a fix for the bug with the do not disturb feature in IOS 6.0.1 When will the "do not disturb" feature work properly?

    It's been working fine for me and everyone I know since Monday.

  • TS4510 It's January 8, 2013 and the "do not disturb" feature is still not working for me on iphone5 or ipad...any suggestions

    It's January 8, 2013 and the "do not disturb" feature is still not working for me on iphone5 or ipad...any suggestions

    First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    My Do Not Disturb schedule worked fine for me last night. I turned that feature back on yesterday, January 7, 2013 and DND came on and turned off as scheduled last night. Hopefully the reset described above will help you.

  • Do Not Disturb doesn't work!

    New iPhone 5S
    iOS 7.0.1 (latest)
    Do Not Disturb does NOT work! It still lets in calls.  I have tried all the settings to no avail.  Even selecting block every call, all the time, the moon icon is showing, but the calls still come through!
    What the?!  Come on Apple... this is not rocket science.  I've embarassed myself in public settings because this easy feature is broken!

    I think you are correct. Page 31 of the manual says:
    Do Not Disturb
    Do Not Disturb is an easy way to silence iPhone, whether you’re going to dinner or to sleep. It keeps calls and alerts from making any sounds or lighting up the screen.
    Turn on Do Not Disturb. Swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen to open Control Center, then tap . When Do Not Disturb is on, appears in the status bar.
    Note: Alarms still sound, even when Do Not Disturb is on. To make sure iPhone stays silent, turn it off.
    Configure Do Not Disturb. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb.
    You can schedule quiet hours, allow calls from your Favorites or groups of contacts, and allow repeated calls to ring through for those emergency situations. You can also set whether Do Not Disturb silences iPhone only when it’s locked, or even when it’s unlocked.

  • HT4993 Do not disturb feature

    Do not disturb feature is on but locks out my favorites also.  Help

    Haha! Slap to the forehead Duh moment! I figured it out! Major DUH! I kept turning the DND on so of course the DND moon stayed in place! I suddenly realized what I was doing, set the schedule instead, tested it, and it is fine!

  • Do not disturb feature

    It is now January 8 and mt Do Not Disturb feature has not fixed itself as it was supposed to. The scheduled fix date was the 7th. Has anyone else seen the fix for this yet?

  • TS4510 Do not disturb feature

    I turn on the do not disturb feature but my phone still rings normally.
    Why advertise it and have it on your products?
    What is being done wrong?

    I think your Favorites List is automatically set as an exception list for Do Not Disturb, so their calls will ring through even while your screen is locked (but other alerts are still suppressed).  You can go to:
    Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb > Allow Calls From > and see if there's a group enabled.
    You can set any self-made group, your favorites list, or your whole contacts list as exceptions. 
    This could be why your phone is ringing even while the screen is locked. Hope this helps.

  • 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!

  • Do not Disturb does not work.

    My do not disturb does not work on my iphone 5. I have tried changing to different settings, I have tried putting my phone to silent, turning it on, i have tried allowing calls from no one (always) and also tried switching it to when my phone is locked...the calls still come through...i turned off manual it worked when i tested it out, then i tried it again and the calls were coming through. I've basically tried changing all settings and different possibilities and my calls still come through 

    That is completely incorrect. The button that you are referring to is the Mute switch, which will turn off particular sounds and just allow vibration. Do Not Disturb turns off all notifications, and can be accessed via the Control Center, or Settings.
    Another thing, this thread is 2 1/2 years old, and is from when Do Not Disturb was first introduced with a different iOS. Take a look at the link I provided earlier, and you will see the User Guide. You can read the difference between the activation of the Mute switch and Do Not Disturb.
    While it is commendable for you to participate in the ASC, before you post something, make sure you look at the date of a thread, and that you are providing the correct information.
    You have posted this incorrect info to three separate threads already, all that are at least a year or more old. WHY?!

  • IPhone will not ring if locked even when Do Not Disturb is not on. Even when the sound toggle on the side is not red.  This problem occurs regardless of whether it I have Do not Disturb on (manually, or scheduled) or COMPLETELY OFF.

    iPhone will not ring if locked when when Do Not Disturb is not on and the phone is not on silent (button on side is not red).  This problem occurs regardless of whether it I have Do not Disturb on (manually, or scheduled) or COMPLETELY OFF.   I've tried wiping the phone and reinstalling from a saved copy but of course the problem comes back because the problem is inherent in the save.   There are two options under "Silence" at the bottom of the Do Not Disturb preferences.  "Always" or "Only when iPhone is locked".   Those are the only two options and I want neither.  No amount of deselecting will work.  It forces you to pick one.  
    Does anyone have a solution given that I've better explained the problem? 

    The settings at the bottom of the Do Not Disturb page do not matter if you have the switch for Manual turned to off, or the Scheduled turned to off.
    When the phone is unlocked, if you try to raise the volume of the ringer, what do you see on the screen? Does it say ringer, do you see the word headphones anywhere?

  • "Do not disturb" can not block "No ID CALL"

    "Do not disturb" can not block "No ID CALL"
    I tuned on Do Not Disturb and selected allow Favorites can call in. In iOS6 it can block the call No ID, but in iOS7 can not. Is it bug?

    Make sure your 'Show in Lock Screen' options didn't get changed for any of those apps you want to see.  Mine are still showing up just fine with DND turned on.
