How To Put A Contact On Your “Do Not Disturb” List?

This guide is for those of you who are looking for a quick and simple way to put a contact on your “do not disturb” list. If you’re looking for a more technical answer, you can learn how in this article.

Just like we have Do Not Disturb settings on our phones and alarm systems, we can also set up a “do not disturb” list on our phones. This is very useful because it means that the people in our phone book will get notified if they are added to the list.

The process of setting up a “do not disturb” list is very easy:

  • Go to your phone’s main menu, and go to “Settings” > “Preferences”. Scroll down until you find “Do Not Disturb”.
  • Select it by tapping on it or tapping twice (or three times if you want to select multiple contacts).
  • After selecting it, tap on “Add New” next to the “Do Not Disturb” title.
  • Type in the phone number of the person you want to add to the “do not disturb” list.
  • If you’re not sure how to enter a phone number, check out this article on how to enter a phone number on your iPhone.
  • After entering their phone number, select “Save”.
  • Tap on “OK” when it asks you if you want to save your new contact.
  • Go back to your main menu by tapping on “Home”. Then, go back into Settings > Do Not Disturb and select “Done”.
  • Go back into your contacts list by tapping on “Contacts” and then select one of them. When they are highlighted, tap on Edit at the top-right corner of their name (or at the bottom-right corner if they have many contacts). Then, tap Add To Do Not Disturb List at the bottom of the screen. You’ll see a popup that tells you that they’re on your “do not disturb” list.
  • Tap on Done at the bottom of the popup window.
  • Go back to your “Do Not Disturb” settings and select “Done”. This is it! Your new contact is now on your “do not disturb” list.
  • It’s also worth mentioning that you can delete contacts from your “do not disturb” list as well. Just go to Settings > Do Not Disturb > Edit at the top-right corner, and then select “Delete”.

How To Edit Your “Do Not Disturb” List?

By default, there are 12 contacts on your “do not disturb” list. You can add more people to this list by going to Settings > Do Not Disturb > Edit at the top-right corner, and then selecting “Add”. You can also remove people from your “do not disturb” list by going to Settings > Do Not Disturb > Edit at the top-right corner, and then selecting “Delete”.

How to set up your “do not disturb” list for certain times of the day

If you want to set up a different “do not disturb” list for certain times of the day (for example, when you’re sleeping or working) you need to do 3 steps:

1. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb.

2. Select an option that says “When I’m asleep” or something similar.

3. Select “Set Up” next to it. This will open up a popup that will tell you how many hours of the day you want to have your phone on “do not disturb”.

4. Select “Done” at the bottom of the popup window.

That’s it! Now you’ll be able to set up a different “do not disturb” list for your phone when you’re sleeping or working.
