Android Do Not Disturb still letting calls and notifications through
Do Not Disturb has different modes and exception settings. You might have it set to allow calls from important contacts, or the mode is set to allow some notifications. Check which exceptions you've enabled and adjust them.
Do Not Disturb doesn't always block everything. You can set it to allow calls from important people, or to allow certain notifications. If you don't configure the exceptions properly, some notifications will still come through. We'll check your settings and adjust them so you only get the alerts you want.

Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Setting Do Not Disturb mode to 'Priority only' and then wondering why some things still come through. That mode is designed to allow certain notifications.
- Not realizing Do Not Disturb can be scheduled. If it's set to a schedule and the current time is outside that window, DND won't be active.
Signs you need professional help
- If Do Not Disturb is set to Total silence with no exceptions but your phone is still ringing and vibrating, give us a call and we'll check if there's a system glitch.
