Hello Bbfixit55,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you're having issues with a Focus on your iPhone. This article goes over how to use Focus on your iPhone: Use Focus on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


"Share your Focus status 

When you set up a Focus, turn on Share Focus Status so that apps display that you have notifications silenced when people message you. Since apps only know that you have notifications silenced but not which Focus you have turned on, the name is never shared. Focus status is shared in apps when you have a Focus turned on and after you give an app permission. 

To turn Focus status on: 

  1. Go to Settings > Focus. 
  2. Tap Focus Status.
  3. Turn on Share Focus Status.
  4. Select which Focus options can share that you have notifications silenced."


You can turn Focus off under Settings > Focus.


We hope this helps.


Cheers!
