Schedule DO NOT DISTURB differently on certain days.
I go to college and DO NOT DISTURB is a god send as I can schedule it to work during class time. However, I do not attend class EVERY day and my schedule varies day to day.
Is there a way (or a way in the works (HINT HINT APPLE)) of being able to schedule the Do Not Disturb feature based on my schedule? FOR EXAMPLE:
Monday/Wednesday, I have classes from 8am to 4pm. So I want it active 8-4. BUT, I want it to reactivate on Tuesdays from 11am to 2:15pm for my classes. I want DND deactivated Thursday-Sunday.
Right now, the only way I can do this is to manually turn it on and off each time. Before someone calls me lazy, it is far from laziness. It allows me to have one less thing to worry about. It allows me to focus on academics and not if I remembered to turn my phone on and off.
Interestingly, alarm clocks on ipads have this feature. I have multiple alarms set for different days at different times so I never need to reset my alarm or remember to turn it on.
If DND doesn't do this (and wont do it), can anyone steer me in the direction on an App that does?????
I am an apple lover but I have noticed the last year or so, they have been sending out half minded, half finished apps and products. Maybe DND should be iOS 7 app with the added features and not iOS 6 with such limitations!
Anyhow, any help with be appreciated!

Scheduled do not disturb still nonfunctional
It is officially January 8th, and scheduled do not disturb is still nonfunctional. Set for 11:30 pm, I turn on the master switch, I get moon. I turn it off, it kindly tells me it is scheduled for 11:30, but I get no moon.
Tell me I am not alone in this.Never mind. I never had to set it when it is meant to be active, so I thought it needed to be turned off for the schedule to take over.

Cannot hear sound after turning off scheduled Do Not Disturb
I am not positive this is the root cause of the problem. I am using the Scheduled Do Not Disturb feature, allow calls if repeated, always (not just when locked).
I do not use the mute slide button on the phone itself because my Lifeproof case will not work the switch.
Plus I am always forgetting to un-mute, so DND is a great feature.
I cannot hear the "ring" when I am calling someone. They answer my call and I cannot hear them speaking.
I turn the phone off and turn it back on and problem is resolved (shades of Android!!)
Thanks.
PS I was hoping 1.8.1 would fix it. It did not.You are resetting the software by turning the phone off/on. There must be a software issue, and that is what the support document I supplied to you addresses. User troubleshooting steps are restart (which you have done), reset, restore from backup, restore as new. You continue down the line until the problem is cleared up. If these steps do not correct it, then you make an appointment at the Genius Bar at the nearest Apple store and have the hardware looked at for possible problems.

My scheduled Do Not Disturb function has stopped working; help!
I have the iPhone 5 & the scheduled Do No Disturb function recently stopped working which I was using daily. The regular Do Not Disturb (on/off) still works
A known Issue... This is what Apple says...

So I thought that Do Not Disturb was supposed to start working on/after January 7th. My setting has been on this whole time and was not working (as expected) for the first week of 2013. But it hasn’t started magically working since a few days ago. Why not?
I am using an iPod with iOS 6.0.1.i am still having the issue as well....still not working. and no word on anything fix? Great...just great! Ugh i hope this gets fixed fast, its annoying.

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.

Do Not Disturb mode stays on all time even the moon icon appears and the schedule mode being off
Hi Sarahlizzy,
It worked for me it entered the scheduled Do Not Disturb at 23:30 on the 7th of January.
Try the usual re-start, hole the on off button and the home button. -

HT5463 Using Do Not Disturb for certain days.
I don't have a question, I just think it would make more sense to be able to sync up Do Not Disturb with Calender. I was exited when first hearing about this feature because I thought I could set it to my work schedule, but there's no calendar day scheduling for it, just time scheduling. This is one of those features that can be the most effective when you can just set it and leave it, without needing to always be switching it on and off.

When using do not disturb function do I have to set each day?
Only if you do not have it scheduled. You administer the schedule in Settings, Notifications, Do Not Disturb. If you schedule it, then you do not have to turn the switch on in Settings. If you use the switch, then it is manually turned off and on. Once you turn it on it is on until you turn it off, and if it is off, it is off until you turn it back on again.

Do not disturb scheduling not working
for the past few days my iphone 5's do not disturb schedule hasn't been working properly. also this morning my phone would not respond although i never shut it off. a hard restart using the home and lock buttons fixed but this is a little concering for a brand new phone. any ideas if these issues are related?
e're aware of that. It's a bug. Apple has already publicly stated that the problem with DND will resolve itself on 7 January.

i want the do not disturb service make 5 once a day because i want pray 5 timeslike 11:00 to 11:15 and 4:00 to 4:15 etc
Go here and tell Apple you want the scheduled (automated) Do Not Disturb feature to be expanded and include your example.
@vdub: Under Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb you can automate Do Not Disturb.
