my phone hasn’t made notification sounds in years except for some particular situations, and I turn notifications off for apps until I know I want them on
I use Tasker to make groups of people who can take me off mute when calling (Partner, parents, best friend) and everything else is controlled by timed DND and mute automations (slightly different for personal and work)
Sounds like you’ve trained your phone to only speak up when it really matters 😂 Honestly, that’s a smart move, constant pings are such a distraction. I kinda wish I had that level of discipline with my notifications.
Massive adoption of smart watches helps this quite a lot. 2 devices ringing or vibrating is quite annoying. People set silent on phone and feel messages on watches.
Honestly that’s one of the biggest reasons I have a watch - my phone has been on vibrate for years but I don’t always notice it, however I always notice the watch vibrate

I gotta look into that, ty
I don’t even remember the last time my phone made a sound. Si ce i had a pager that could vibrate i was like: welp, that’s it.

I’m working on it.
Been mine for at least a couple years now
I hate it… When you actually need a person you can’t reach them. Is it really so hard to toggle DND? I really haven’t got any issue with that.
Have you considered that they don’t want to be reached
Just call twice in rapid succession, that usually overrides it
It’s better to just leave the phone at home…
