How do I create a future event in Calendar during which I don’t want to be disturbed?

[iMore Question]

I have iOS 12 on my iPhone 8, and see that I can set a schedule for Do Not Disturb, but it will repeat every day. I want to create events during which I know I don’t want to be disturbed, without having to manually turn it on each time.

I don’t think Do Not Disturb is what you need. You just want to add an event but not be alerted correct? Create an event in calendar, fill out all your info then scroll down to “Alerts” tap on it and select “None.”

I have a meeting every Saturday from 1300 - 1500, and every Sunday from 0900 - 1130, during which I don’t want any sounds from my phone: can I do that w/iOS 12?

You can do scheduled times but I don’t think you can choose days.


Maybe the new Siri Shortcuts?

You can also 3D Touch DND and select a time frame or “until I leave” but again I don’t think it’s a repeated thing.
