How to Turn Off Do Not Disturb

Silence Do Not Disturb so you stop missing calls, texts, and notifications.

1. iPhone — Open Control Center

   Swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen (iPhone X or later) or swipe up from the bottom (iPhone SE / iPhone 8 or earlier).

2. iPhone — Tap the Focus button

   It looks like a crescent moon icon. If Do Not Disturb is active, it will be highlighted.

3. iPhone — Tap "Do Not Disturb" to turn it off

   The moon icon will dim and notifications will resume immediately.

4. Android — Swipe down from the top of the screen twice to open Quick Settings

   The first swipe shows notifications; the second swipe reveals the full tile grid.

5. Android — Find and tap the "Do Not Disturb" tile

   It typically shows a minus sign inside a circle. If it is active, the tile will be highlighted or colored.

6. Android — Confirm it is off

   The tile should no longer be highlighted. Notifications, calls, and messages will come through normally.
