Question Don't Pause

[Brabian]

I've been an Android user for more years than I care to think about but I have to say that in recent years I've begun to miss "Don't Pause" more and more - perhaps I'm just getting too many interruptions when listening to music!

I have the .apk but it will no longer install (Android 15) and I would really appreciate it if someone could pick it up and "modernise" it to work on the latest generation of phones as (perhaps I'm too stupid) I can't see an easy way to stop my Moto G75 5G from continuing to interrupt Taylor Swift with things I don't need to pay attention too!

Wouldn't 'Do not Disturb' work? I don't know, my music never stops with my notifications so not sure what you're using that is doing it, but DnD should block anything else.

I happen to have a smartwatch to check notifications, so I started leaving my phone on vibrate. I did this mostly to be respectful of others and not bother them with notification sounds, but a side benefit is they stopped interrupting media playback. If you have a smartwatch, that's something to try.

Media playback if only interrupted on my phone by alarms I have set and specific calendar events I have set. I have all other notifications set to silent or turned off completely. I will deal with all messages etc in my own sweet time, thank you very much!

Thanks, all, Do Not Disturb seems to be the easiest option! Why didn't I think of that in the first place? That was the whole point of "Don't Pause"!
