How I can disable notification sounds while on call on my iPhone?

Hey, I am using iPhone for the last 10years, I have never experienced that annoying part, I am using iPhone 14 ProMax. While I am on calls, the notification sound in ear is so loud, such as text message, WhatsApp etc


Could anyone help me the best way to find out how I can disable all notifications (such as WhatsApp, texts, emails) sound while on call? Tnx

I silenced ALL notifications while on a call.

Create a new Focus <Custom>

Name it, etc. I named mine "Notifications Off with Calls'

Select 'Customize Focus'

Under SILENCE NOTIFICATIONS <People>

Select 'Allow Notifications From': Verify/ set nobody is selected

Click Next

On Choose Calls to Allow select 'Allowed People Only'

Click 'Done'

Verify 'None allowed' is displayed under 'People'

Click on 'Apps'

On 'Allow Notifications From' Verify/ set only the Phone App is selected

Click 'Done'

Under 'Set a Schedule' select 'Add Schedule'

Select 'App'

Select 'Phone'

Verify 'While using phone' is displayed below phone

Back out and you should be all set.

Yea because when I did it few times, again after finishing the call you forget to make it normal again! Then the phone remain on silent!
this doesn’t make sense
such beeps must be on silent mode whenever we are on a phone call, same like other models of iPhones

then you can all leave Apple a feed back here Product Feedback - Apple

Before answering the call, use the side control and flip the switch down for vibrate, then answer the call, once done flip it back up for ringer.
