Messages say I’m on DND.

I have focus and DND turned off on my phone and MacBook. Whenever someone goes to text me, it tells them that my phone “has notifications silenced”. I have triple checked it was turned off for sure on both phone and computer and my iOS is up to date on both devices. Has anyone else had this problem? I wasn’t even aware of it until my friends asked why I had my notifications off. Thanks.

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16

Hello lizonade,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


You may have muted that specific message thread:


"Mute notifications for a conversation

  1. In the Messages list, touch and hold a conversation.
  2. Tap Hide Alerts."


More details can be found here: Change message notifications on iPhone


If the issue persists, can you provide a few more details? Do you experience this with multiple contacts? Also, what's your exact iOS version?


Cheers!
