Android App That Will Allow Phone To Ring Only For Certain Contacts

Like the title implies i'm looking for a android app that will allow certain contacts to ring when the phone is on vibrate. Apps like Essential Calls or Selective Silence. I'm on a S6 running 5.0.2.

First go to the contact app. While there, make the contacts you want to receive notifications from as favourites. (Click on their name and then press the star button on their contact picture)

When you're done adding your favourites, go to settings > Sound and notifications > Do not disturb
Turn this setting on then click on "Allow exceptions"

Click on calls and messages from and select "Favorites only"

You can additionally set alarms and events and apps to your exception list.

Awesome thanks. I'll give it a try tonight. Hopefully I don't get paged though, lol.
