Why is focus schedule not working on weekend?
Hello, Maryleyden.
Let's start by taking a look at this article: Turn a Focus on or off on iPhone. In particular, check the section titled Schedule a Focus to turn on automatically. It explains: "To have this Focus turn on automatically based on cues like your location, app usage, and more, tap Smart Activation, turn on Smart Activation, then tap at the top left.
Note: When you set up a Sleep Focus, it follows the sleep schedule you set in the Health app. To add or edit a sleep schedule, tap Open Sleep in Health. See Add or change sleep schedules in Health on iPhone. You can also change your next bedtime and wake-up time. See Set an alarm on iPhone."
Let us know if we can help with anything else at all or if this doesn't settle your issue. Thanks and have a fabulous day!
Hello Maryleyden,
What are you noticing exactly? Are you able to enable Focus?
Set up Focus on iPhone and check if you make a new status there is a difference.
Contact Apple Support if this continues.
We hope this helps.
Cheers.
Does not solve problem
i have set up do not disturb for the 10:00pm-9:00am for the weekend but it doesn’t work on Saturday. I’ve spoken with a representative and we have figured out that the focus app does not recognize Saturday as the weekend because I’m starting it on Friday at 10pm. Now today the Monday morning didn’t work I’m thinking the same. I start it at 10 pm (actually weekend) on Sunday
Hey hey Maryleyden.
That's a possibility. Have you tried setting up a section to cover the 10:00pm -11:59pm section of Friday and then setting one for Saturday that covers 12:00am - whenever you wish it to stop? If not, that might be something to try and see if it gives you the results you need.
Be well.
I’ll try that it will probably work. Just seems like I shouldn’t have to do that with a smart phone
I didn’t have to do that before this new set up with focus
