How do you uncheck "Silence" under Do Not Disturb - iPhone 11pro

Under the Do Not Disturb portion of settings there is the SILENCE section that only allows two options 1) Always 2) When phone is locked. I don't want either of these options because my phone is locked most of the time. Regardless of my phone being locked, I still want to be notified if I get text messages, which it currently does not do. Why is there only two options here? Why isn't there an option to disable it all together? This is a huge pain in the ***! I should be able to lock my phone for the safety of it's contents, but still be able to communicate when people are texting me.

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 14

Those only apply if you have do not disturb enabled, as this feature is designed to silence calls messages and other alerts.


if you don’t want your stuff silenced, don’t turn on do not disturb
