iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 public release is now out and people are liking it so far. Apparently, one of the biggest introductions in iOS 15 is Focus wherein a user can set different rules for work, sleep, home, or driving. Focus is basically an evolution and more powerful iteration of Do Not Disturb on iOS. With Focus, a person can now create custom filters for notifications, phone calls, messages, and other stuff on their iPhone. For instance, you can use Focus to allow notifications from certain apps on Do Not Disturb.

Where is Do Not Disturb in iOS 15?

The Do Not Disturb (DND) mode on iPhone now lives under Focus. Hence, you won’t find the Do Not Disturb option under Settings anymore in iOS 15 and iPadOS 15. Since Focus is highly customizable and complicated to use, most users may find it difficult to locate and use DND mode on iOS 15.

In this article, I won’t talk about how the all-new Focus mode works in iOS 15. We will instead see how you can use the good old Do Not Disturb feature in iOS 15. That’s because the DND mode is most commonly used by people while they are at work, home, or on a vacation.

Thankfully, it is still easy to enable or disable Do Not Disturb. It is just that iOS 15 changes the way how you access DND on iPhone 13, iPhone 12, iPhone 11, or older iPhones.

Now let’s see how to use iOS 15’s Do Not Disturb on your iPhone or iPad.

    I have set up a DND schedule. Do I need to have Do Not Active toggle on with the crescent moon symbol showing when all I want is the scheduled time for DND to be active?
