  • Quiet hours?

    From John Hill@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 23 15:28:07 2023
    I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max, fully up to date.

    Is there a way of setting it so that I don't receive calls between certain hours (specifically, in the middle of the night)?

    Or at least of silencing the ringtone, though this would be less useful.

    I would have expected this but if it is there, I can't find the setting.

    But I would like to have the ability to originate a call if I so wished.

    John.

    Use iOS' Focus feature?

    Thank you. I think I have found what I want in"Do not disturb".

    Did this not appear directly under Settings at one time?

    Yes, but Apple expanded the feature, so now Do Not Disturb is a subset
    of the larger Focus feature.

    I usually finger flip on my phone from the top just before work to access
    it from Control Center but Do Not Disturb is my go to. I guess I could
    automate it. I wake to my iPhone alarm every morning. I guess I could use
    my iPad instead for that. I never use Do Not Disturb on the iPad. I should learn more about Focus.

    I'm not seeing a dilemma. Bring up Control Center, tap Focus, then tap
    Do Not Disturb. Done deal.
