Security apps for alarms and cameras are popular - can they the notifications on these have their own settings when the phone as a rule is on silent?

Allow notifications from apps while using Do Not Disturb and Sleep. I’m using an Arlo security camera with an app that sends a notification when movement or sound is detected. How can I allow these notifications while using Do Not Disturb/Sleep?

new do not disturb ios15 in the old do not disturb settings, I was able to make it so notifications wouldn't alert while my phone was asleep, but If I checked my phone, the notifs would be on my lock screen. I also had it so that while I was using my phone (like using an app) the notification would pop up as normal. Focus won't allow me to create those old settings so I was wondering if there might be something i'm missing? I just want notifications to be silenced when my phone is asleep, but I want them to come through while i'm actively using it.

Enable App Notifications on Silent Mode Hi, I vehemently do not like having my phone in anything but silent mode. Sounds give me anxiety. However, I need to get audible notifications from a company I contract with for time sensitive job offers. Is there any way to allow specific apps to do this? The focus mode doesn’t work for me, because I still need the other notifications to pop up visibly.
