If you're having trouble with the "Share Focus Status" feature on your iPhone, which allows you to share your Focus Status with your contacts and other apps, here are few tips that you can try:


  1. Make sure you have enabled the "Share Focus Status" option in the Focus settings. To do this, go to Settings > Focus, select the focus mode you want to enable sharing for, and toggle on the "Share Focus Status" option.
  2. Check that the contacts or apps you want to share your Focus Status with are selected in the "Allowed Notifications" section of your Focus settings. To do this, go to Settings > Focus, select the focus mode you want to enable sharing for, and scroll down to "Allowed Notifications." Make sure the contacts or apps you want to share with are selected.
  3. Restart your iPhone and the device of the contact or app you're trying to share your Focus Status with. Sometimes, a simple restart can fix connectivity issues.
  4. If the issue persists, try disabling and re-enabling the "Share Focus Status" option in your Focus settings.

If you have enabled the "Share Across Devices" feature for your "Do Not Disturb" settings on your iPhone, it should sync your DND status across all your Apple devices that are signed in to the same iCloud account. However, if this feature is not working, here are some things you can try:

  1. Make sure you have enabled "Share Across Devices" on all your Apple devices. To do this, go to Settings > Do Not Disturb, and toggle on the "Share Across Devices" option.
  2. Check if your Apple devices are all running the latest version of iOS. Sometimes, compatibility issues can arise if your devices are not updated to the latest software version.
  3. Sign out of your iCloud account and then sign back in. This can refresh your iCloud connection and fix any syncing issues.
  4. If the issue persists, try turning off "Share Across Devices" on all your devices, wait for a few minutes, and then turn it back on again.
