Customize Your 'Do Not Disturb' Gates
With a parent who's been a loyal Do Not Disturb user for years, I've had a number of minor emergencies where I couldn't reach her. No, she still hasn't turned off Do Not Disturb, but she has added me to a list of contacts that can breach its ironclad gates. If you'd consider them an emergency contact, you should consider adding them to that list. Find the desired person in Contacts > Tap Edit in the top right corner > On the edit page, click either Ringtone or Text Tone > At the top, you'll find Emergency Bypass , which will allow sounds and vibrations from that person even when Do Not Disturb is Enabled. You may want to select a quiet ringtone if you choose to do this—after all, not every text and call after bedtime is a dire emergency.
