Do Not Disturb Question

[jkeitz]

I love the Do Not Disturb feature, but I was wondering about two things. First, will it prevent the iPhone alarm from sounding? Second, will it prevent Time Tuner (a clock radio app) from sounding if it is open on the phone and it is able to stay awake? As you can see, I'm afraid that Do Not Disturb will let me oversleep.

The built in clock will ring still but third party apps would need to be updated to use the dnd api

A simple fix would be to turn DND off a minute before your alarm is set to go off. You're going to wake up anyway so you won't really need the DND feature on.

That's the way I have it set up now. Of course, I get up at 5 on weekdays and later on weekends.

I gotta to tell you that I'm really disappointed we can' t silence emails.

I need to leave my phone on for emergencies but those bloody emails come through at night and it's annoying.

Good Luck

Wait, it doesn't silence emails?!? That is the only thing that disturbs us all night!

According to this story, it does silence emails too. I guess I'll know tonight.

Been on iOS 6 for months, it silences EVERYTHING but calls from your favorites

Good! That's exactly what I was hoping for!

I just tested it. No email audible alerts for me. Keep in mind that I have emails turned off for the lock screen all the time.

you can also set that to No One

OR Everyone, All Contacts and Repeated Calls from the same person within 3 minutes

So if I get a call from someone who is not in my favorites, the call will not come through, but if they are in my favorites the call will ring?

I was not aware of that.

Yes, if you set it up that way, which is pretty cool.
