To instantly turn on DND, swipe down on your phone screen twice and tap “Do Not Disturb” from the tray. If it’s not there, you can add it by hitting the pencil icon, then long-pressing and dragging the DND icon to the top section.
You can also enable the feature from the Settings app by going to “Sound & Vibration” or a similarly labeled menu and tapping “Do Not Disturb.”
On the “Do Not Disturb” settings page for most Android devices, you can pick which interruptions will bypass the setting. Under the “Exceptions” section you’ll find the “Allowed Notifications,” to accomplish this (via Nerds Chalk).
For some Android phones, you can even identify specific people and allow their text messages and phone calls to come through, as well as messages that are triggered by reminders and events from your Calendar app. If you can see, “What can interrupt Do Not Disturb,” tap “People” and go through the submenus for conversations, calls, and messages to identify a custom slate of notifications to allow while DND is engaged. Some Android phones may not have these menus and instead, you’ll see “Allow Messages/Calls From.”
There may also be a section that lets you exempt notifications from apps, alarms, and sounds from other forms of media. Tap these menus to select sound types and add apps you want to bypass DND. Lastly, there should be an option to let “Repeat Callers” get through DND, or people who call more than once within a specified timeframe. Consider enabling this option to allow for contact in an emergency.
