Phone calls only at night

[DaveD40]

I recently moved from Blackberry to iPhone 5C. I am really pleased with my new iPhone with one quibble. Why doesn't Apple provide a one step setting for night time use so that all alerts but phone calls are shut off? I know how to get there with the current setup, but it requires turning of "Push" for an important email account and then remembering to turn "Push" on in the morning. Just a minor quibble.

You just need to configure Do Not Disturb and it will do exactly what you are looking for.

Settings, Do Not Disturb and then pick a schedule and you can choose who to except phone calls from (everyone, favorites, etc).

Thanks. You've confirmed what I discovered with more exploration of the system.
