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 kept my home phone number and went with magic jack for very little money. That way, I only have to carry my phone when I’m out. Even then, I don’t always bring it with me or I switch it to focus mode. I’m not a paramedic and I’m never armed so I expect for a real emergency, my friends and family would probably call 911 instead of me.
