While Notification Center is a great way to make sure you never miss an alert, there are times when you might not want to hear all that beeping and buzzing.
With Do Not Disturb, your iPhone or iPad will keep collecting all your alerts but will do so quietly. Whether you’re in a meeting, at a romantic dinner, or simply trying to get a good night’s sleep, Do Not Disturb will make sure you can talk, eat, or sleep in peace and quiet, and still find all your alerts waiting for you when you’re ready. This also extends your iPhone battery.
Change your settings
If you don’t want to be disturbed at a certain time, you can set a schedule. Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb and turn on Scheduled. Then set a time.
You can also choose when you want to receive alerts, calls, and notifications:
- Bedtime: When Bedtime is enabled, the Lock screen will dim, calls will be silenced, and notifications will appear under During Bedtime in the Notification Center until your scheduled Do Not Disturb ends.
- Silence: Choose to silence calls and notifications always or only when the device is locked.
- Allow Calls From: Allow calls from everyone, no one, your favorites, or specific contact groups stored on your device or iCloud.
- Repeated Calls: If someone calls you twice within three minutes, the second call isn’t silenced.

Now, when your scheduled Do Not Disturb time is active, your phone will consider it to be “bedtime” and will act in the way described above.
