Enabling and customizing Do Not Disturb (DND) mode can vary depending on the device or platform you are using. I’ll provide instructions for a few common devices and platforms: Android, iOS (iPhone/iPad), and Windows.
Android:
- Quick Settings:
- Swipe down from the top of your screen to open the notification shade.
- Look for the “Do Not Disturb” icon. Tap it to enable DND.
- You can usually press and hold the DND icon to access settings and customize.
- Settings Menu:
- Open the Settings app.
- Go to “Sound” or “Sound & vibration.”
- Look for “Do Not Disturb” or a similar option.
- Customize your preferences, such as allowing calls from certain contacts or enabling alarms.
iOS (iPhone/iPad):
- Control Center:
- Swipe down from the top right corner (iPhone X and newer) or swipe up from the bottom (iPhone 8 and earlier) to open the Control Center.

Windows (PC):
- Action Center:
- Click on the Notification icon in the system tray (bottom right corner).
