I don't understand "do not disturb"

[BlackZeppelin]

Hi all. I don't understand the do not disturb function. I turn it on at night to allow calls and messages only from my contacts and also exclude notifications from apps like YouTube etc. It's the schedule I don't understand.

I thought it was straight forward. Turn on do not disturb. Do not disturb is on till I turn it off manually. Then in settings I see an option to set a schedule with a default suggested schedule time. Great, so I set the default schedule time.

The notification panel still says do not disturb is on till I turn it off manually. No matter how I set the schedule, do not disturb does not turn off automatically via the schedule.

What am I doing wrong?

Try leaving the first toggle off in the DND settings, then put in your schedule times.

If you manually toggle DND on, it just stays on till you manually turn it off. Turning the first toggle off, allows the schedule to run.

It's a little confusing...

Personally I've got a Bixby routine set up so the schedule only activates if it's between certain hours AND wireless charging. I recommend it if you're not always going to bed at your usual time.

Ok, I'll give that a go. That seems really odd, I never would have figured that out. Thanks!

You are welcome.

I didn't mention that this was how I had it setup on my Note 20U & now on my s22 Ultra. Works fine for me.

Are you getting caller ID info?

Forgive me if this is somewhat unrelated, but when your DND is on and you're allowing your contacts thru, do you get their caller ID info when they call? I don't, and I wonder if I'm the only one. My phone rings, but I don't know which contact is calling.

That's the way I used on my pixel 4xl and my S22u.

On my pixel 4XL the cotact is identified with a pop up. I would guess it would be similar with my S22. However, no one has called.

I do have Call display while using apps turned on as "Small Pop-ups."

I'm sorry I can't answer that as I haven't yet had a call whilst in DND. As soon as I do I'll let you know.

I can answer this now, I last night got an SMS whilst in DND mode. The notification was the same as regular SMS notifications, with the contact info identified.

Good to know.
