I usually do this every night when I’m about to sleep, and also during times when I want to decompress from the barrage of notifications. Sure, DND mode is a thing but I really enjoy the feeling of being unreachable sometimes. Having it on DND still makes you receive the notifications. It’s also easier than turning your phone on and off. Regarding emergencies, I really don’t have any situations where it’d be so pressing for me to react immediately to something. And either way I’d never sleep having volume/vibration enabled from calls.
Is there anyone that relates to this?
I use the Focus feature on IOS. I selectively silence the stuff that aren’t important (email, messaging apps, social media, etc.) and keep calls and emergency alerts active. 90% of calls I get are spam or sales calls and they don’t happen at night when I sleep. If I get a call in the middle of the night, there’s a high chance it’s important or it’s an emergency, so I don’t silence it.
