Override "do not disturb" for select apps

Is there a way to allow individual app notifications while in "do not disturb" mode (ex. weather apps/severe weather notifications)?

Allow specific notifications during “do not disturb” It doesn’t seem there’s a way to allow notifications for specific apps during “do not disturb”. It would be great to allow notifications from specific apps such as security apps. Does anyone know a way to achieve this?

Set the amount of time the do not disturb toggle is on When I start a call or a meeting, I would like to turn off notifications for 1 or 2 hours. When I use the do not disturb toggle in the notification centre it turns notification back on at midnight. How can I rather say "Do not disturb for 1 hour" or another set time. This way, if I have a 1 or 2 hour meeting, I dont miss notifications after the meeting.

Do not disturb notifications from specific apps I live in Hawaii and often am awoken at 3 am because of a group text from someone in a very different time zone. I would like to use do not disturb but I need to get notifications from the SPOK app (pager app). I cannot find a way to tell IOS to allow notifications from that specific app to be allowed during Do Not Disturb. Is there any way to do that?

No. Not at this time.

Government alerts should always override DND.
